It'll be interesting to see who hires Spicey. Hard to think of anyone in public life who's burned their credibility so bad. It would have to be some sort of behind the scenes role; no one would want his face associated with their message.

 

[RumbleHumble]

I mean Spicer was so awful we've basically had no public press briefings for months. It's amazing it went on this long.

Expect this to get even worse. This new comms aide will do his damndest to keep everything from public eye if at all possible.

From Glenn Thrush:



Reince is next. I'm curious to see if Calamity Bannon survives after the release of the book by Joshua Green.

Please elaborate on this.

 

[studyguy]

Inevitable, surprised it took this long tbh

 

[Roland_Gunner]

Please elaborate on this.

Here's the politico story:

Same not seeing the Pope fucked with him. This was the tipping point.

Reince Priebus furious, per multiple who spoke w him. He has tried blocking Scaramucci at various points.

[smokeymicpot]

Sorry.

 

[nature boy]

How much shit does Spicy know that he can now leak all over the place?

Knowing the Orange Fuck, he'll probably ask for a NDA (doubt it's legally binding)

 

[RumbleHumble]

Sorry.

Gonna be so many damn leaks coming out of this office over the next month. Happy vacation Trump!

 

[Wilsongt]

I will not be happy about Spicer leaving until he spills ALL 👏 THE 👏 DAMN 👏 T👏

 

[Y2Kev]

Calamity bannon is amazing

 

[Futurevoid]

From Katy Tur/NBC:

Bannon told Scaramucci "over my dead body" will he get the job - two sources 1 in WH and 1 out tell @Sruhle and me.

Tells you how much clout he has these days....

 

[Wilsongt]

I wonder why they hate Scaramucci so much.

 

[RustyNails]

This scarecrow guy sounds like he's gonna make a lot of people in WH quit.

Damn so Bannon died? Crazy day

Brutal DNC numbers in June...

RNC
RCPT $13,504,415
EXP $10,629,234
COH $44,707,217

DNC
RCPT $5,500,142
EXP $5,702,049
COH $7,492,435

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

My guess is Scaramucci is a Kushner dude and maybe a ((((((((((globalist)))))))))).

How much of this is going to trumps legal fund though

 

[Diablos]

Holy hell. That's bad.

 

[kirblar]

Isn't the RNC much more centralized than the DNC (as in, there's more under its scope and such?)

 

[BlastProcessing]

In honor of our boy Spicey.

It was a rough ride duder, but at least you almost got to meet the Pope.

 

[Futurevoid]

 

[UberTag]

Would love to see Bannon and Priebus abandon ship before Trump cans them.
Curious to see how Breitbart paints these developments.

 

[JettDash]

So is this guy so evil even Bannon hates him or what?

better skills, more experience, upgraded weapons, stronger spells, higher hp, faster walk speed, greater critical hit range

They will be on camera today.

The Mooch and now White House Comms director on Trump in 2015....

Oops. Someone show that to King Orange...lol

 

[RumbleHumble]

Everyone just hates him because they think he has too much power over Trump. Preibus has been trying to keep him out of office pretty much since Trump took power.

He's also a money man so he's probably a globalist or something.

 

[Ogodei]

Breitbart turning on Trump would be how you get those approval numbers under 35.

This would be fascinating. When FOX went anti-Trump his loyalists stopped watching and flipped to Breitbart. Would they just migrate to the Daily Caller or something?

Sounds like better him than that right wing extremists Bannon.

Right now, I'm inclined to agree, but he's still a shit and a shill.

House Democrats are starting to outraise their Republican counterparts

House Democrats have continued raising money at a historic pace, with the party campaign committee beating its Republican counterpart for the second quarter of 2017, according to fundraising data obtained by The Washington Post.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is set to report June receipts of $10.7 million Thursday, bringing its quarterly total to $29.1 million and its year-to-date total to just shy of $60 million.

 

[Paches]

That avatar is frightening beyond belief.

Sounds like the whole thing is starting to tend to more insular to the family really. That will only serve to make their situation worse imo.

Gonna be a fun August, I think. The cracks are starting to go critical.

 

[Goodstyle]

Anyone know why Bannon, Spicer, and Reince, three people that usually aren't on the same page, all hate Scaramucci?

 

[jtb]

Time to read the Devil's Bargain by Joshua Green. Will report back on how gross and access-y it is.

 

[RumbleHumble]

Reince and Bannon have been on the sameish page since mid-March if I remember correctly. Largely as an attempt to counterbalance Kushner's power surge at the time. No huge rifts between the two anymore. Supposedly Bannon spends most of his WH time with Reince these days anyway. And both have been opposed to Scaramucci since January largely because they simply don't trust him apparently. Spicer's largely pissed because Scaramucci took the job he wanted.

Mid-way through it. Its gross and access-y.

Also, The Daily Show posted a memorial to Spicey:

None of them are a part of the Russia investigation?

Wow, that's interesting. Especially the last bit. Katy Tur was right, never bet against The Mooch.

 

[benicillin]

Because Trump is hiring people that are loyalists and not political allies with any kind of experience. Scaramucci is a bad pick for a White House comm director because his only qualification is that Trump likes him for supporting his campaign.

Trump cleaning house?

Lol.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

... Doesn't the DNC just handle presidential.

Why would they be raising money.

 

[Nomadic Sparks]

So if Priebus quits, what does that do to the Republican party?
