Difference between Trump 1.0 and 2.0 for Miller

Stephen Miller has played a central part in shaping White House policy since Donald Trump’s first term as president.

The FT’s US national correspondent Guy Chazan and US national editor Ed Luce join this week’s Swamp Notes to explore what Trump’s top policy adviser might be planning next.
