Original English article

Trump has announced that Stephen Miller will replace Susie Wiles as his chief of staff, a move that follows substantial Republican losses in the midterm elections.

This change is part of a post-election reshuffling and is expected to potentially set up clashes with Congress due to Miller's reputation as a loyal partisan firebrand.

Miller, who has been a close confidant of Trump since 2016 and played a key role in shaping the president's hardline immigration policies, including the Department of Justice's 2018 Zero Tolerance policy, will assume his new role on Monday, while Susie Wiles will move to the Trump Political Operation after her last day as chief of staff on Friday.
