NEW: Inside Bill Stepien and Jason Miller's efforts to rein in Trump and save his campaign, with just 3 months left - my latest deep dive in @thisisinsider - businessinsider.com/bill-stepien-j…
Republicans close to the campaign repeatedly gave credit to Stepien and Miller for the (relatively) tighter focus from Trump of late, including shorter press briefings at WH ...
BUT, @JasonMillerinDC said it was all Trump - and he's just happy to go along with it: "I would love to pretend that I had some special influence. It was the president's idea. My job is just to say that 'I agree with you.'"
Stepien and Miller's rise, with the demotion of Brad @parscale, has resulted in phone calls w/ Trump multiple times throughout the day to tighten messaging AND new, improved talking points for Trump's on-air surrogates
