Trump promotes Stephen Miller to chief of staff role, replacing Susie Wiles

​US President ​Donald Trump said ‌on Friday ​he would replace chief of staff ‌Susie Wileswith longtime adviser Stephen Miller, picking a firebrand policy hand to reshuffle White House ‌operations after Republicans lost control of ‌Congress in this week’s midterm elections.

In a social media post, ​Trump called Miller "one of my most trusted ⁠advisors" and praised Wiles for doing "an ⁠outstanding job." ​Trump said the change would take effect on Monday.

Wiles will ⁠move to Trump's political operation, he said.
