White House communications director Mike Dubke has announced his resignation from his role.

Although the announcement came Tuesday, Dubke will not officially vacate his position until Saturday when President Donald Trump returns from his foreign trip.

Dubke's resignation is the first of possibly multiple

"shake-ups" in the White House communications team.

The shake-ups come just a few weeks after confusion arose after the firing of FBI Director James Comey.

On the night of May 9th, the day of Comey's firing, White House spokepersons Sean Spicer and Sarah Huckabee Sanders had seemingly placed the blame on Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

However, just two days later, Donald Trump told NBC News anchor Lester Holt:

"I was going to fire Comey -- my decision. There is no good time to do it, by the way. I was going to fire regardless of recommendation [from Rosenstein]."

Regardless of the suspicion of Trump's reasoning to fire James Comey, the discrepancies of Spicer and Sanders' words with the president's were clear.

The communications team and the president were not on the same page on the statement concerning James Comey.

Although communications director Mike Dubke will be reportedly leaving on "good terms", rumors are pointing to more changes in the Trump communications team.

The most notable of the potential changes is the replacing of White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer.

Politico reported President Trump was considering "scaling back" Spicer's public role.

The BBC reported that Trump is also considering "scrapping the daily news briefing altogether and holding one himself every fortnight."

If that were true, the American people may see the last of Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Sean Spicer or any other spokesperson.

In yet another deviation from the conventional presidential norms, Donald Trump could take role as his own spokesperson.

At the very least, there will be less confusion and more clarity in the president's statements.
