On Friday, President Donald Trump said he was tapping Stephen Miller as his new chief of staff, shaking up his White House team days after a devastating midterm result.
The move comes after rival Democrats dominated Tuesday’s midterm elections, handily winning control of both chambers of Congress, and is a signal the president is unlikely to moderate his policies.
Susie Wiles, the first woman to serve as White House chief of staff, is moving to Trump's political operation, and her departure deprives the president of a trusted adviser who quietly wielded considerable control over the West Wing's operations.
On today's show, Bloomberg This Weekend hosts David Gura, Christina Ruffini, and Lisa Mateo speak with:
- Joe Mathieu, Co-Host, Bloomberg Balance of Power on the fallout of Tuesday's midterm elections and President Trump's decision to change up his cabinet.
