Stephen Miller is Trump's sword hand, if the sword hand acted independently of the user. He's our effective president, unleashing terror against Trump's enemies, as the old man dodders around from press conference (seated of course) to golf course. As some of the pieces at the link suggest, he seems pretty much emotionally unbalanced, and of course cruel. Historically speaking, that's not sustainable.
Relatedly, we have had some career death watches in the Trump White House already, with most surviving them (not Hegseth, but Waltz was canned for SignalGate). There are rumors that Kash Patel has impressed quite a few people that he is so far over his head that he might be canned. We shall see. But that's the problem with being performatively cruel. It's a shit management plan.
