Replacing Susie Wiles with Stephen Miller is not a course correction after the Republican midterm defeat, Michael Wolff argues. It is Donald Trump sticking to his familiar response to setbacks: refusing to backtrack.

The Trump biographer joins Rachel Johnson on LBC to interpret the White House change, then looks beyond the appointment to the confrontations a Democratic-controlled Congress could bring. Their interview drew roughly 100,000 views in its first four hours today.

LBC reports that Miller will move from deputy chief of staff to chief of staff, while Wiles joins Trump's political operation. Trump's public announcement praises both aides, calling Miller one of his most trusted advisers and saying Wiles has done an outstanding job. Wiles, in turn, says her commitment to the president will continue despite the change in role.

Wolff reads the appointment differently. Pointing to Miller's immigration positions, he argues that Trump is reinforcing his existing direction rather than responding to the election with moderation. "There's no contrition, there's no apology, there's no backtracking, there's no adjustment," he says.

His interpretation of possible impeachment proceedings follows the same logic: confrontation can offer Trump visibility rather than simply constrain him. "He's inviting them to impeach him. That gives him another stage."

Johnson also asks where this leaves other Republicans. The later discussion considers Ron DeSantis, JD Vance and Tucker Carlson, with Wolff arguing that Trump's desire to retain attention complicates any successor's path to leading the party.
