Priebus May Be Named Ambassador to Greece in Reported White House Staff Shakeup

There’s been a lot of reporting in the past week-plus about potential White House shake-ups when President Trump returns from his foreign trip, and one of those reports today says Reince Priebus might be out soon.

Some reports have said the White House is planning a “war room” of sorts to start fighting back more aggressively, and The Washington Post is reporting today that the president has “expressed frustration — both publicly and privately — with his communications team.”

But the WaPo report also says Priebus may be leaving the White House:

Underscoring the uncertainty of what lies ahead, some Trump associates said there have been conversations about dispatching Priebus to serve as ambassador to Greece — his mother is of Greek descent — as a face-saving way to remove him from the White House.

that seems to emanate from the White House. Maybe Trump is suspicious that he isn't totally loyal?

Pence away from the FBI. Going to Greece sure make it harder to interview him. LOL. It won't work, but it adds a few more days onto the investigation. They know they are guilty as shit. I think at this point they are merely trying to slow-roll all the investigations.

They could replace everyone else, but if Trump's still there, the problems continue.
