Donald Trump is replacing his White House chief of staff, with Miller set to take up the position on Monday. The change comes just days after Republicans suffered defeats in the midterm elections.
Miller has been a close political ally of the US president and will move into the senior White House role at the start of the week. The supplied details do not identify the outgoing chief of staff or provide further information about the circumstances of the change.
The replacement follows the Republican setbacks in the midterms, linking the senior staffing change to a difficult period for Trump’s party. Miller’s appointment will take effect on Monday, when he is expected to begin his new responsibilities at the White House.
