Look worse, anyways. And yeah, that’s totally possible. Trump’s spokes-monsters may be doing a bad job of it, but to a large degree it’s because of what they’ve got to work with. How does one defend the indefensible? How does one support a president who blows apart your carefully crafted false narrative by going off-message and letting slip the horrible truth without a thought? One can’t. One can’t do a good job in that situation, but one could always do a worse job. Donald “Dunning-Kruger” Trump always thinks he can do a better job of it, but we’ve seen what happens when allowed to speak for himself. I’m sure whoever he thinks is going to do a better job - i.e. be more like him - will be worse than what he’s got.

Come to think of it, I saw something like this coming when that “Secret Hitler” booster pack was released, thinking that Murphy’s Law would ensure that it would become swiftly outdated.

Clearly they need to keep releasing updates in step with future appointments to keep Murphy’s Law in play. Then the only question is, will the administration outlast their update capacity?

I’m pretty disappointed that this happened without an on-camera emotional breakdown. I was fully expecting him to burst into tears at a press conference and be swiftly ushered out of the public eye.

We must give credit to Trump. A guy with a name like “Scaramucci” will have a lot of appeal to his base of surly nativists who distrust Wall Street and people with foreign-sounding names.

Sean Spicer Resigns After Trump Appoints Anthony Scaramucci as Communications Director

White House press Secretary Sean Spicer has resigned, just six months after holding the job, according to White House sources.

Spicer made his decision after President Donald Trump appointed long-time loyalist Anthony Scaramucci as White House communications director.

Trump made his decision to hire Scaramucci last night, confirming his decision on Friday morning despite protests from some in the administration.

Spicer, a career political spokesperson, was deeply opposed to the idea and resigned in protest to Trump’s decision. After White House communications director Mike Dubke resigned in May, Spicer tried to position himself as the replacement. That effort failed, as Trump decided to select a Trump loyalist as a successor.

White House reporters were asked to clear the hallways of the press area while Spicer met with press staff in his office following the decision. Laughing and clapping was heard coming out of the room.

Really? NYT only reports the applause.

They actually embedded a Melissa McCarthy video.

The parting shot:

Trump was loyal to Spicer despite misgivings about his performance, but closely scrutinized his work. Spicer’s daily briefings became popular entertainment for television and online audiences, prompting the White House to move them off-camera, despite protests from the media.

Nice knife-work there.

Yeah - I’m afraid Spicer had the modern-day political equivalent of the Kobayshi Maru.

I fear it may be the former.
