President Trump is weighing a “huge reboot” in his White House staff after becoming disappointed with several aides, according to a report on Sunday.
The shake-up could include White House press secretary Sean Spicer, top strategist Steve Bannon and Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, Axios reported.
“He’s frustrated, and angry at everyone,” Axios quoted an unidentified confidant in the White House. “The advice he’s getting is to go big — that he has nothing to lose. The question now is how big and how bold. I’m not sure he knows the answer to that yet.”
Trump has complained about some Cabinet members touting their own accomplishments and or not praising him enough, the website reported, citing sources.
“He’s frustrated and angry at everyone,” one of the sources said.
Talk of overhauling the West Wing ratcheted up after the president last week fired FBI Director James Comey, who was overseeing the investigation into Russian involvement in the 2016 election and whether Trump campaign officials colluded with Kremlin officials.
Axios reported that associated said the implicit message in a shake-up would be that he can handle the Oval Office better than his aides.
“I get it. I’m moving on. I get that I can do a better job,” the website quoted a top aide. “He’s never going to say he did a bad job.”
In an interview with Fox News Channel’s Jeanine Pirro, Trump played up that go-it-alone approach, floating the idea he should end the daily White House press briefings for reporters and take care of it himself.
“Unless I have them every two weeks and do it myself, we won’t have them. I think it’s a good idea,” he told Pirro on her show “Justice with Judge Jeanine” that aired Saturday.

I’ll believe it when I see it.
I kinda hope Bannon stays on.
Remember who runs this stupid rag: James and Lachlan Murdoch...the same liberal assclowns who begged MeGyn Kelly to stay at FauxNews. They HATE Trump. NO lie is beyond them.
More hi octane BS. This is bile spewed by the left.
Good idea. Also keep Kellyanne Conway away from the press.
Why believe this? I’m with you. Almost all reports are fake news.
me too get rid of Reince and keep Bannon.
He needs Bannon. I never trusted Priebus.
I don’t understand why some Freepers continue to take the bait.

Like Trump is going to telegraph his intentions to the lying media. NOT.
Believe nothing you read or hear in the media!
It doesn’t matter if its conservative, they’re no more likely to have any inside scoop then the MSM.
All this “Media Diving of ‘What-Trump-Does-Next!’” is the equivalent of interpreting the “will of the gods” through the entrails of an owl!
Compared to the MSM the owl entrails have a better track record!
Watch what Trump does!
I like Huck’s daughter too, she could be a stalwart in the press room...
Keep Spicer and Bannon. Fire Prince Reibus
The only one who should be ash canned is Priebus. He’s the answer to the question “Which one of these is unlike the others?”
Nobody has a lock on tomorrow, and especially not the new regime at Fox. The Donald will do what The Donald does best, use every asset to the degree it best suits his objectives.
I do not see Sean Spicer going anywhere soon, but his job description may undergo changes, same for Dave Bannon. Mostly, the people around President Trump just have to keep up, because there are REGULARLY eighteen-hour days.
Trump may have to hire a second shift for his staff.
Yes, it’s comically absurd these days. The media has zero credibility.
Only believe it after seeing it, if then.
