Trump names hardliner Stephen Miller as White House chief of staff

President Donald Trump has named hardline adviser Stephen Miller as White House chief of staff, replacing Susie Wiles three days after the Republicans' midterm election defeat. Miller will start in the role on Monday. Miller, currently deputy chief of staff for policy, is a key architect of the administration's immigration crackdown and is known for aggressive attacks on Democrats. Wiles, credited with stabilizing Trump's second term, will move to the Trump Political Operation. Democrats strongly criticized the appointment, with Hakeem Jeffries calling Miller a "dangerous xenophobe." Miller's style contrasts with Wiles' behind-the-scenes approach, and his promotion raises questions about Trump's stated willingness to work with Democrats following their election gains.
