CNN: “As most of the President’s advisers sought to dissuade him from the idea, warning the economic consequences would be devastating, Miller encouraged the President to move forward with shutting down some ports of entry.”
“While Trump was ultimately convinced to back down, Miller’s stance solidified his position in Trump’s mind as the chief facilitator of the President’s hardline instincts and appears to have won him more power.”
“In the wake of that debate, Trump has moved to more formally empower Miller, telling aides in a recent Oval Office meeting that he was putting Miller in charge of all immigration and border issues, according to a person familiar with the meeting.”
