Let me be clear... I'm not wishing for it or anything... but does anyone gets the sense this motherfucker winds up croaking from "an undiagnosed defect" in the next year?

I hope not, but he's clearly the vanilla background character who knows some shit he shouldn't.

Unless he's gone over to Bannon's side I always assumed Priebus was the "establishment/insider" guy who, along with Pence, would help the team figure out how to navigate DC politics. Spicer and other RNC and veteran Republicans on Trump's team would be his allies. They would compete for Trump's ear with the outsiders (Bannon, Miller, etc.) who probably enjoy more trust from Trump precisely because they are outsiders with no ties to the establishment Republicans who tried to undermine Trump's campaign. We've already seen reports trying to pin a lot of the bad press on Priebus but those stories are likely planted by sources close to Bannon's side. And the inverse has happened as well. Obviously I'm not sure what's going to happen, but Priebus' political fate probably depends on how close Trump thinks Priebus is to the Republicans who want to take Trump down. Bannon and his team will likely push Trump to discard Priebus because he's close to the establishment they're on record as wanting to destroy, and also because he poses a natural threat when it comes to influencing Trump, but if Priebus sticks to his establishment roots he may have a decent ally in Pence. If Priebus thinks Trump can not only withstand all the impeachment stuff but overcome it, then he may calculate that it's in his best interest to more closely align himself with Trump. If he thinks Trump is going down then he's got incentive to stick to the establishment because if Trump goes then all those outsider folks immediately become persona non grata collectively in DC.

Reince Priebus? That's not a name, that's a bad Scrabble hand.
