By John Bowden - 05/30/17 07:37 AM EDT

President Trump's White House communications director, Mike Dubke, is leaving his position after just three months on the job, according to multiple reports.

Dubke, who had been helping the Trump administration reorganize the White House press office, reportedly told Trump that he would stay on through the end of Trump's first overseas trip, which ended last weekend.

A senior administration official told Axios that Dubke is leaving the White House on good terms.

My guess is Spicer will move into that role and the Huckster's daughter will take Spicer's place as Press Secretary.

As part of the shake-up, White House press secretary Sean Spicer will reportedly hold on to his position, but there will be fewer media briefings.

The reshuffle follows reports of disarray in the White House communications team.

What's worth noting is that the first change in what could be a larger White House shake-up has come in the communications department, with rumours of further reorganisation imminent.

This lends credence to earlier reports that the president views his administration's ongoing difficulties as a messaging problem, and not one of policies or management.

If that's the case, it appears the new message will be delivered with bare knuckles.

Old campaign hands, like the pugnacious Corey Lewandowski, are being considered for White House jobs and the president could be hitting the road for more unscripted big-venue rallies with his supporters.

It would mark a return to the campaign tactics that won Mr Trump the presidency - where every stumble or controversy was countered aggressively, political decorum and tradition be damned.
