REPORT: Priebus is OUT at the White House

Erick Erickson is reporting that two sources tell him that Reince Priebus is out at the White House:

Two White House sources tell me Reince Priebus’s departure is imminent. The President would like to land Reince somewhere still in government, but regardless has decided to move on. I was not told who the replacement is or even that the President has settled on a replacement. It will not be, despite some rumors, Steve Bannon. One name circulating in the media is lobbyist David Urban, who once served as Chief of Staff to Arlen Specter. Choosing Urban would be bringing the swamp into the White House instead of draining it.

Trump likes to say he’s draining the swamp and so does his ardent fans, but I don’t think we’ve seen any evidence of that so far this year. If anything Trump is the RINO swamp-lover I always suggested he would be throughout 2016. I mean just look at the phony Obamacare repeal for a good example.

Here’s what Noah Rothman believes will happen after Priebus leaves:
