Trump replaces chief of staff Susie Wiles after midterm losses

n-tv.de (German) —

Following the Republican Party's devastating losses in the midterm elections, US President Donald Trump is restructuring his inner circle at the White House. Chief of Staff Susie Wiles is stepping down from her position, as Trump announced on Truth Social. Wiles, who also led Trump's presidential campaign, will be replaced starting Monday by Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, a key figure behind the president's aggressive immigration policies. The Republicans lost their majorities in both the Senate and the House of Representatives to the Democrats. Wiles submitted her resignation Thursday evening, according to CBS News, though she is expected to remain in Trump's political orbit. The 69-year-old, who was the first woman to hold the chief of staff position, had announced in September that she had overcome breast cancer.
