The only thing that I'm trying to understand is does Trump like this or does he not like this. Any other competent President would fire their Communications Director almost immediately if they gave an interview like this on the record, but Trump isn't a competent president so...

Whats the deal? How is this going to play out?

It isn't. Trump has NEVER been sane, politically or in any other way. The mainstream media are complete whores for ratings, much of the country is desperate to avoid facing reality, and Trump himself is nuttier than Jimmy Carter's farm.

Here's a piece over at RealClearPolitics that neatly overviews a good number of the Trump government's insanities:

Cut him some slack. He's an Italian-American from Long Island; this isn't even him without a filter.

No, he's obnoxious.

Being of Italian ancestry myself I got a good laugh out of this.

The Mooch is the Leak Finder General. He's there to root them out, and then he leaves. Hence why he's terrorizing everyone. Brilliant move once again, President Trump!

If this was a leaked private outburst, I would be fine with chalking it up to his Latin temper, but he went out of his way to go on the record with this. In a way, I almost like the chutzpah, but not when it's targeted at fellow WH staff.

Uh, is this how you think Italians talk?  Stop with the "cut him some slack he's a paisan!" crap.  This is how thugs talk, not Italians.

Yeah, the ethnic stereotyping as a way to defend and explain Scaramucci's psychological problems is certainly interesting to witness.

Personally, I welcome people acknowledging the difference between WASPs and olive-eaters.

Trump has hired him to be the WH Staff's torturers. To root out leakers, Deep Staters, thespians, notorious extroverts, and others up to no good.

So, he's basically this administration's version of Gordon Liddy? Okay, then...

This White House should have its own reality show franchise.  You've got a cast of characters and clowns that could fill a whole primetime lineup.

That's what they're already doing.

Incompetent and incapable of actual government, the Trump Administration is one long PR exercise, in the only style Trump and his crew know. (There's also a huge amount of stuff done solely to prop up Trump's ego.)

Yes, but he's the real deal and his son won't get arrested for uploading kiddie torture porn to 4chan.

Moochmania is currently underway right now. CNN just broke into commercials to show him silently walk into the White House. Trump has created yet another star!

Scaramucci is an embarrassment to anyone of Italian heritage.

I was surprised he even went after Bannon. He sounds like a Bannonite himself. Maybe Trump hired him because he knew he would be like this. The only way I do see him leaving is if he starts getting more attention than Trump.

Again, he's not supposed to last long. He's clearly a traveling witch hunter.

So he's just going to set the place on fire and leave?
