Anthony Scaramucci , who until recently was Trump’s communications director, has followed former Chief of Staff Reince Preibus out of the door of the White House; although General John Kelly will steady the ship, some members of the Trump administration will probably leave of their own volition, analyst Nikita Danyuk told Radio Sputnik.
White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci resigned from his position on Monday after a tumultuous ten days in charge. US President Donald Trump and his new Chief of Staff General John Kelly requested Scaramucci’s resignation after he aired profanity-laced tirades about other members of the Trump administration.
Scaramucci repeatedly clashed with now-fired Chief of Staff Reince Preibus. He had a colorful interview with The New Yorker in which he claimed he wasn’t like White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon because he didn’t “try to suck his own d*ck.” In the same interview, “The Mooch” called Preibus a “f*cking paranoid schizophrenic.”
According to the New York Times, the removal of Scaramucci, nicknamed “the Mooch,” was at the request of Kelly, a four-star general who has undertaken to bring unruly elements of the White House into line.
White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders explained that the President had felt that Scaramucci’s remarks were “inappropriate.”
“The President certainly felt that Anthony’s comments were inappropriate for a person in that position and he didn’t want to burden General Kelly,” Sanders told a briefing on Monday.
