    This doesn't surprise me. I expected Spicer to resign following SNL parodies and lots of criticism over his performance… or to be fired. However, Scaramucci has no experience as a communications director, so this appointment is puzzling to me. Thoughts?

    Keep making changes until it's correct.

    He's not happy with production so changes need to be made.

    Everything the orange buffoon does is puzzling. I hope Sean gets his book out there as soon as possible.

    Will this make Trump's past and future statements suddenly true? If not, step down now. ;)

    Production? As in producing a reality show? The White House episodes?

    Kasowitz, Corallo, and Spicer all quit within the last 24 hours. That's his lawyer, his spin doctor, and his spokesperson. I wonder if Priebus is next, since he wasn't involved in this new hire.

    No idea how Scaramucci is going to do this job. It's not his forte.

    That can only be accomplished if the idiot-in-chief resigns.

    I'd read Sean Spicer's book. I'd really like to know what he thought about the inaugural crowd size. :p

    He has a problem with leaks, so I'm in total agreement fire everyone who is possibly leaking intel.

    It will only sting for a moment. Then blissful relief. Spicer while a joke, is understood to have been leaned on in ludicrous ways.

    He will be forgiven in time.

    The Scaramucci pick does seem a bit unusual at first glance but if you're familiar with the man and his background it appears less unusual. He's also shown that he's capable of standing up to the yellow journalists in the MSM, which is a big plus.

    He shouldn't have taken his job so seriously. His boss doesn't take his own job seriously.

    It was obvious to me that Sean Spicer could only stomach being a sock puppet for a liar for a limited period of time.
    I second the thoughts that he write a book. Of course he would be sued, but that is a mark of distinction.
    Anyone else notice Hucklebee's daughter came on the scene shortly after Trump made the comment about the delicious piece of chocolate cake? :p Sean Spicer was troubled, porky Huckabee Sanders is almost a perfect intellectual vacuum.

    Don't you get it? Trump authorizes the leaks so he can complain about the leaks. He doesn't know how to govern for **** but he knows how to create "reality TV" drama.

    I'm not sure Trump needs another attack dog. Washington doesn't respond well to the stick and carrot, especially without much carrot.

    More to come. The Trump administration is a dead man walking.

    So much winning ... you'll get tired of winning.

    ..and since introspection is NOT a Trump quality, the epic fail will continue unabated.

    The gross incompetence of this administration is surprising. I tried to defend it, but obviously its beyond defense and thus salvation. So no matter what happens, I'll be indifferent.

    1. Spicey was faced with 'Re-Lying' daily, or walking back The Charles Manson of Twitter's utterances.
    (then PuTrump would change his mind re-re-lie, later that day making a monkey out of him.)
    2. Spicey was an ***** and a Liar himself.
    3. Melissa McCarthy destroyed him months ago. His fate was sealed.
    Bigots Trumpov&co really couldn't stand that he was parodied by a woman.

    toughest job in politics, speaking for Trump, which might mean changing your statement mid sentence due to a random tweet that comes out during the press conference. I would have quit too. (well, lets be honest... I would have been fired)

    I wish him well.

    Yes, perhaps. But only because of the evil that grows in D.C. Because of a malevolent dishonest media that has forever covered up and failed to investigate the crimes, lies and scandals on the left. Because of a cowardly republican congress more worried about their own careers than the American people. The Left, by and large, has no conscience. They look past their own evils and lies because they do not care. They only tear down the opposition because that is all they have.
