Reince Priebus and Sean Spicer were installed to help Trump with the political understanding of the White House and the Congress. Now, they are both gone.
In the big picture, this could affect the way the House and Senate Republicans react with the new Trump White House? They could possibly become as isolated as the Democrats are from Donald Trump? With the ongoing investigations, this does not bode well for Donald Trump. Republicans might be much less inclined to support their President from this day forward?
The firing of Priebus could have a much larger impact than any of us realize at the present.

It looks like PINO doesn't realize that Congress has more power than the president, whoever the prez may be. shitgibbon just united them by making himself their common enemy. With all the talk recently about working across the aisle, rethugs just might decide to try it.

(51,632 posts)Do they stick with the fake prez to further their evil, greedy agenda or do they continue with their loyalty to fellow GOP losers who are their pals.This is why getting the Russian investigation is going no where in the House and Senate.
We need an independent, separate, non partisan commission (as you have heard me bitch about for months here on DU).

(959 posts)what a shock! Dump doesn't play fair, he uses people, he has no morals or decency or any other human value that I can see. Keep on propping him up, Republicans. Prostrate yourself to this evil stain on humanity, see what it gets you. You thought if you bowed low enough, you'd get your tax break. Now you are locked out, no influence at all, and 2/3 of the country despise you and all you stand for.
