The race to become Donald Trump's next national security adviser is marked by a clash of contrasting personalities. Trump indicated that Secretary of State Marco Rubio might serve dual roles while praising Stephen Miller as a favored candidate. Both men represent different factions within Trump's support base, with Rubio seeking alignment with MAGA Republicans, and Miller bolstering hardline immigration policies. The dynamics between candidates illustrate Trump's tendency to prioritize personal relationships over official roles in decision-making.
I think he sort of indirectly already has that job because he has a lot to say about a lot of things, Trump said of Miller on board Air Force One.
A lot of people say it really works in with what Marco is doing, he said.
The fact that two men with such disparate backgrounds could both vie for the position indicates how the president relies more on the personalities around him than the positions they hold.
Mike Waltz was always the odd man out...failed to jell with key Trump aides like chief of staff Susie Wiles.
