Although firings were common during President Donald Trump’s first term, he hasn’t fired nearly as many people since returning to the White House — a fact often attributed to his insistence on being surrounded by unquestioning MAGA loyalists this time. But the firing of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem marked the departure of a high-level official from Trump’s second administration.Now, conservative Sen. Thom Tillis (R-North Carolina) is calling for the firing of another Trump loyalist: White House policy adviser Stephen Miller.During a Sunday morning, March 8 appearance on CNN, Tillis told host Jake Tapper that Miller is a “big problem” for the Trump Administration.When Tapper asked Tillis if “Stephen Miller should go, he quickly responded, “Oh, of course, I do.” “He is not worried about substance,” Tillis said of Miller. “He’s more worried about form, but I also think that he has an outsized influence over the operations of the Cabinet. And I believe we’ve got qualified Cabinet members there that sometimes are doing less than what they want to, because of his direction and his outsized influence. He’s a big problem in this administration. He has been from the beginning.”Miller, Tillis argued, is having a very negative influence on Trump’s immigration policies.The conservative senator told Tapper, “It gives me pause that you had people like Stephen Miller calling the shots. It was Stephen Miller who said it was the position of the United States that we should go after Greenland. And Stephen Miller, that’s been repeatedly responsible for embarrassments for the president of the United States by acting too quickly speaking, first, and thinking later.” – YouTube www.youtube.com
