Reports: Scaramucci Was Only Hired To Get Rid Of Priebus
dailycaller.com ^ | 07/31/2017

Multiple reports have surfaced saying former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci was only hired to get rid of former White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus.

Scaramucci was removed from his position Monday, after 10 days on the job. The dismissal came alongside reports that White House senior advisor Jared Kushner and President Trump’s daughter Ivanka influenced the president to bring in Scaramucci, primarily to take out Priebus.

“Ivanka Trump, the president’s daughter, and Jared Kushner, her husband, had pushed the president to hire Mr. Scaramucci, seeing him as a way to force out Mr. Priebus, the former national Republican committee chairman, and his allies in the West Wing,” The New York Times reported.

“Jared and Ivanka were instrumental in bringing in Scaramucci, primarily to take out Reince Priebus,” Mike Allen reported in Axios. “That was his chief (some might say only) duty.”

He elaborated in an update: “Kushner and Ivanka brought in Scaramucci as an instrument of destruction against Reince Priebus. He was used as a tool to end Priebus’ tenure in the corner office. A source familiar with Jared and Ivanka’s thinking said they’re fully supportive of the general and will follow his lead.

The story now is that Mooch was brought in to kill Reince and thus left once that was done, and it's a good story, but it's not true.

[fwiw]

That idea - that he was hired just to push Priebus out -
crossed my mind earlier today. I’m not so sure about it though.

Wait a minute. If the whole goal here was to fire Priebus, why didn’t Trump just fire Priebus? Why the need for a middle man?

Too much drama and conspiracy. I think he did good getting rid of Priebus but he sure screwed up by running his mouth when he should not have. Embarrassing.

I smell BS.

If true...Trump needs to grow a pair and do the deed himself.

I don't think he has that problem

Priebus had to go because the RINO Establishment would not deal with him. Even though he was one of their own. So he had no value to Trump.

The Establishment sandbagged Priebus and are at fault for his dismissal. But they are twisting the news to make it look like Trump’s fault.

The GOPe is mad about Priebus’ dismissal but it’s their own fault.

A song for Scaramucci, Ivanka and Jared:

You talk too much
You worry me to death
You talk too much
You even worry my pet

You just talk
Talk too much

You talk about people
That you don’t know
You talk about people
Wherever you go

You just talk
Talk too much

You talk about people
That you’ve never seen
You talk about people
You can make me scream

You just talk
Talk too much

No...I work construction. When I smoke someone, I have a check sent out and hand it to the guy.

I know a guy in San Francisco who is hired just to fire people.

He is well paid for this service.

I suppose it is not easy to tell a bunch of people you know well that they are fired, pack up your $hit and get out.

Usually he has security escort them out since a disgruntled ex-employee can cause much mischief in a short time.

I am not familiar with the inner workings of DC politics, but that was what I was wondering too.

Yeah, if you believe the man who made the phrase “You’re fired!” a household meme needs help firing someone...

I had already suggested this hours ago... it’s SOP in the corporate world to bring in a hatchet man to get the blood on his hands then leave. That way there’s no lingering bad feelings going around with the people who are there permanently.

So President Trump a man famous for “you’re fired.” had to bring in a hired gun to take out a pimple like Reince Preibus. Never mind that the hired gun had been trying to join the administration for six months. The hired gun who missed the birth of his child, sold his company, and whose wife was leaving him over his support of Trump.

If this is true anyone hoping Sessions will be sent packing is in for a rude surprise. And how we propose to get rid of Meuller?

For that matter I don’t remember seeing Kushner on my ballot. Why are he and Ivanka deciding who’s in the staff. Seems like that should be Trump’s decision.
