The new co-chair of GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump's agriculture advisory team has called for the atomic bombing of "the Muslim world," compared Syrian refugees to venomous rattlesnakes and threatened violence against people who say "happy holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas."
Republican Sid Miller, who's served as Texas agriculture commissioner since January 2015, is also currently under investigation for using taxpayer funds to pay for personal out-of-state trips — including one to obtain a so-called "Jesus shot."
Miller announced Friday that he's been selected as the Trump campaign's agriculture co-chair, according to a report from The Dallas Morning News.
"Donald Trump will be great for agriculture," Miller said. "One other thing, when he gets elected and the day he takes office, America will get our respect back around the world because his personality is, 'If you hit me, I'm going to hit you twice.'"
