WASHINGTON, DC: Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller’s wife, Katie Miller, stopped by 'The Ingraham Angle' and had plenty to say about President Donald Trump’s second term.

During her sit-down with Laura Ingraham on Fox's 'The Ingraham Angle,' Katie Miller gushed about her former boss. She said Trump’s second term has him looking sharper, calmer, and more focused than ever. “I’ve never seen President Trump having more fun, enjoying what he’s doing in the Oval Office more than he is now,” Miller told Ingraham.

Donald Trump's crowning moment in South Korea

Miller’s comments came as Trump’s latest foreign trip turned into a literal crowning moment. On Wednesday, he landed in South Korea and was invited to a royal photo op when South Korean President Lee Jae Myung presented him with a massive gold crown, a replica of one worn by ancient Silla Kingdom kings.

Lee also awarded Trump the Grand Order of Mugunghwa, South Korea’s highest honor, featuring a medallion hanging from a golden necklace fit for a king. “I’d like to wear it right now,” Trump joked, drawing laughter from Lee, who explained the award recognized Trump’s efforts to improve relations with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.



A translator told Trump the ornate crown was a replica of “the largest and most extravagant of the six existing crowns from the Silla period.” The ancient Silla Kingdom, based in Gyeongju from 57 BC to 935 AD, once ruled most of the Korean peninsula. Lee added, “It symbolizes the spirit of Silla, which brought peace to the Korean peninsula for the first time, and there will be a new golden age of the Korean-US alliance.”

Laura Ingraham calls it 'cheeky'

Back in the studio, Ingraham commented on the spectacle. “I think it’s kind of cheeky, I mean, I love it,” she said. Miller nodded in agreement. “It’s perfectly on point,” she replied. “I mean, I know who I am voting for in the 2028 election, don’t you? It’s obviously President Trump.”

Ingraham added, “The way he spars with the press, and does it with a little Reagan-esque twinkle in his eye… he’s clearly having fun. You were there in the first term, and this term is completely different.”

Miller noted, “I’ve never seen President Trump having more fun or more focus. In the first term, there were constant distractions and hoaxes. Now he’s fulfilling the promises he made to the American people because he knows how the bureaucracy works — and it’s working for him."



Dinner menu crafted for a king

The crown ceremony came just 11 days after the “No Kings” protests, a nationwide wave of anti-Trump demonstrations. Trump responded with a meme of himself wearing a crown and dumping on protesters from a fighter jet labeled “King Trump.”

Wednesday evening’s state dinner reflected Trump’s royal treatment. Guests dined on braised American beef short ribs, Korean staples like kimchi, and mini beef patties with ketchup.
