Trump replaces chief of staff with hardline immigration adviser Miller
Stephen Miller, a hardline immigration advocate, becomes Trump's chief of staff on Monday.
Trump has named Stephen Miller, his deputy chief of staff, as chief of staff starting Monday. Wiles is moving to lead his political operation.
Miller, 41, has worked for Trump for years and helped shape the immigration crackdown. Miller is widely seen as one of the most hardline figures in the administration, especially on border issues.
His style differs from Wiles, who ran a more stable operation behind the scenes. The change comes three days after Republicans suffered major midterm losses.
