"Oh, of course I do. He is not worried about substance. 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. It was Steven 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."
"It gives me pause that you had people like Stephen Miller calling the shots. 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."
Senator Thom Tillis publicly stated that White House adviser Stephen Miller should be removed from the Trump administration. Tillis criticized Miller for prioritizing form over substance and for wielding excessive influence over cabinet operations, claiming qualified cabinet members are constrained by Miller's direction. Tillis cited Miller's involvement in the Greenland proposal and repeated instances of embarrassing the President through impulsive actions. While supporting Markwayne Mullin as DHS Secretary replacement for Kristi Noem, Tillis expressed concern about Miller's continued influence. Democratic leaders, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, argue that leadership changes alone are insufficient to resolve government funding issues.
