Martin Longman Washington Monthly prognostications in February said when Trump excluded Democrats and went full right wing bonkers he basically ended his presidency as the GOP is too divided to unite on any major legislation.

17 days in September looms large for this band of me first, Party second, country.....be damned.

Yeah I know, their title is inaccurate, but I was interested in the part speculating about who is left to reach out to the Freedom Caucus types. Because Kelly seems on a goal of solidifying that Republican establishment types are in charge. It remains to be seen if Miller and Gorka will be kept on and even if so, many do not see them as consequential. For example, from this Aug. 18 Washington Examiner piece

Conservative author Ann Coulter made her own suggestion in a tweet on Friday, urging Trump to bring back his former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski "so there's someone in the White House who isn't from Goldman Sachs." It was unclear whether Coulter wanted to see Lewandowski take on Bannon's old role.

Sessions is actually a wild card, we know he's ultra conservative but at the same time we don't know what's in that crazy little head about all these factions and about Trump himself. He's in a role both Independent of the White House and Congress if he so wishes and with the Mueller investigation another wild card. Sessions with a President Pence could do a lot of culture wars damage? As opposed to crazed narcissicist drawing all the attention away from getting anything done every day?

I am interested in what happens here for the bigger picture of being a catalyst for, or tamping down, factionalization of both parties. Trump vs. Congress, it feeds factionalization, Trump with a more unified GOP in Congress behind him, it goes back towards two polarized parties.

He mentions one Democrat.

He mentions one Democrat. Cohn. Economy guy. No others. More Intercept verbal click bait diarrhea.

Trump's administration is loaded with sociopathic Republican crackpots and billionaires.
