In a fascinating turn of events, America just learned that Anthony Scaramucci will no longer occupy the position of White House Communications Director. According to CNN, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders gave the following statement earlier this afternoon:
Reports from the New York Times indicate that President Trump’s decision to remove Scaramucci from his White House role followed after the latter blasted other members of the Trump administration on social media. Scaramucci’s removal from the White House is quite interesting, especially since his hiring engendered former Press Secretary Sean Spicer to resign from his post. Likewise, the appointment of Chief of Staff John Kelly could be loosely linked to Scarmucci’s removal. Kelly, who replaced Reince Priebus, reportedly wishes to implement a sense of structure in the White House, which is apparently lacking. Perhaps Scaramucci’s social media outbursts conflicted with Kelly’s sense of proper organization in the White House.
