Mary Miller Daughter
Miller’s Controversial comments during a speech for Moms for America, one of Miller’s daughters posted on social media that Miller “said it” and was “owning it.”
Megan Goff, one of Miller’s seven children, posted on her Facebook story a picture of her mother captioned, “Mom is getting roasted on national news media platforms. The funny thing is: she and Dad don’t care!! She said it. She’s owning it. Go mom!”
This post was published following a statement from Congresswoman Mary Miller in which she said, “I sincerely apologize for any harm my words caused and regret using a reference to one of the most evil dictators in history to illustrate the dangers that outside influences can have on our youth.”
Miller’s apology came after backlash for saying that, “Hitler was right on one thing. He said, ‘Whoever has the youth has the future.’”
Facebook users responded to the screencap of Goff’s post with disbelief, saying that they initially thought it was satire before getting confirmation that it was genuine.
Goff also shared a post on her Instagram page with a caption supporting her mother’s statement which read, “Proud of my mom for speaking yesterday in defense of parental rights and the priority that families have in raising their children…. PS: Don’t believe everything the media spins and twists to further their own agenda.
Some online debates formed as Miller’s supporters defended her by saying that she is “a nice lady,” and should be given a pass because she is “inexperienced at being a public figure.”
