USA: The Americans punish MAGA – and Trump promotes one of the most radical representatives to his chief of staff
Stephen Miller is taking over from Susie Wiles, who was seen as a more moderate voice. The decision suggests that Trump will not change his policies - on the contrary.
US President Donald Trump is reshuffling his inner circle at the White House after the Republicans' devastating election loss. Susie Wiles, Trump's chief of staff who also led his presidential campaign, is stepping down and will be replaced by current deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller. Miller is known for driving Trump's aggressive migration policy, which contributed to the Republicans' losses, particularly among Latino voters.
The Republicans lost their majority in both houses of Congress to the Democrats, with significant losses in Texas, including a Senate seat that went to a Democrat for the first time in several decades.
