is relevant.

as much as we disdain him, priebus was RNC chair - he's the party's man inside the white house. a voice of moderation.

all that will be left are people just as unethical as the president - the kakistocracy. they're preparing the ground for overt authoritarianism.

Bannon plays a nastier game of retaliation than trump does, and if he cuts him loose, the fallout from the alt-right could be significant.

Bannon basically put Breitbart on the map, and it was the Breitbart core that played a big role in energizing the Trump base. If he was cut lose, they might turn on him in a heartbeat.

My guess is its Sessions.
