It's time for Priebus to go.

It's obvious at this point that Trump made a key tactical error: Assuming the GOPe was no longer an enemy after the election. The DNC is a beaten step-child right now. No one is looking at Chuck Schumer like he is the primary foil to Trump. They can't even mount a protest. Trump has been focused on his main adversary: The Media. But the GOPe, which has been ignored, is the real snake here.

The whispers about Pence are blindly obvious, the leaks flowing constantly, smearing Trump, Kushner (who I don't like), and Bannon are all for one purpose: To get Trump to resign so Pence, the GOPe favorite, can be President.

There are several camps in the WH. All of them have been hit hard with embarrassing leaks. All but one.

Priebus and the GOPe. Apparently they are never in the WH, because there is never anything bad leaked to the press about them. Pence as well, is always 'above the fray'. Interesting that.

One thing you always have to think about when looking at a 'crime' scene: who benefits the most? Priebus, the GOPe, and Pence.

We let fricking snakes into the Whitehouse because they promised to be good. But it's in their nature.

I never thought Priebus was a good choice for Chief of Staff. He seems just happy to be there. It should have been Gingrich all along.

I remember when I got like 20 downvotes on here for saying Priebus was a mistake. Hopefully, this is the first of many crucial moves for Trump in the coming weeks.

Trump should ask Pence to resign, all that disloyalty.

I always thought of him as a GOPe guy that felt lucky to pull the wool over Trump's eyes while he found a cabinet spot. Sure hope that instinct is wrong. #shrug

I think this may be true. Sad to think. I never liked Priebus when he was RNC chair. I don't like him now. And the thing you said about how nothing is leaked on the GOPe is golden and spot on. That all but points the finger directly at RP and his band of back-stabbing snakes.

Bannon might be a better Press Secretary, too. He'd gladly revoke a lot of peoples' WH press credentials, which is the one other thing I'd love to see happen.

Bring in Newt. We know Newt is loyal and will "keep shite in the fam." And Newt knows how to navigate Washington.

Priebus shouldn't go because he's the establishment. He should go because he's fricking incompetent.

Gringrich is the obvious ideal choice. But that won't end well, either, because the first time Trump tweets something stupid, Gingrich will take him behind closed doors and, metaphorically, kick his arse. And we all know how well Trump would handle that.

I fully agree. Trump tried to make nice with the GOP after the election and they've returned the favor by wadding up his agenda, the agenda Americans voted for and threw it in the trash.

frick THE GOP

Trump should run all these establishment cucks off and put HIS people in there that are loyal to HIS agenda, not the power and money brokers.

Maybe he should get rid of Bannon, Kushner, and Ivanka and fill those slots with professionals instead?

Pence just formed a SuperPac. Making America great--or something...

I will come out and say it...I used to think of Pence as a Race Bannon tolerable cuck lite. I now get the creeps from him. When someone is a good Christian man you don't have to brag about it, it just is... He is so pure it is sickening and unbelievable-these types are usually the kinkiest freaks. and what was the crap about he is never alone with women? I missed all that.

If Trump started firing everyone in his administration that was incompetent, there wouldn't be many people left. But the problem starts at the top. Like the old saying goes, the fish stinks from the head down.

The blind leading the blind.

Gingrich is an establishment snake himself. I am clueless how people prop him up, so often.

I've been thinking about this lately....how do you really get rid of these leaks? Do you totally clean house? Isolate it to one or two? How can you be sure you get the leaders? It's a hell of a challenge in this environment.

Plus Newt kind of has an ax to grind with the GOPe considering what they did to him in the 2012 GOP Primary.

This is an issue we can all come together on. He needs to to be campaign manager for some county commissioner somewhere. I was ready to for Priebus to get fired back in 2015. He was incompetent as the head of the party. He's such a squid.
