Hoe kan een integer iemand toch willen werken voor trump? zeker als je ziet wat een zootje hij ervan maakt.
Dat stuit een mens toch tegen de borst.

Sean Spicer Resigns as White House Press Secretary

WASHINGTON — Sean Spicer, the White House press secretary, resigned on Friday morning, telling President Trump he vehemently disagreed with the appointment of the New York financier Anthony Scaramucci as communications director.

Mr. Trump offered Mr. Scaramucci the job at 10 a.m. The president requested that Mr. Spicer stay on, but Mr. Spicer told Mr. Trump that he believed the appointment was a major mistake, according to person with direct knowledge of the exchange.

Mr. Scaramucci, who founded the global investment firm SkyBridge Capital and is a Fox News Channel contributor, is known for his spirited on-air defense of Mr. Trump, but he also enjoys good relationships with journalists from an array of outlets, including those the president has labeled “fake news.”

Mr. Spicer’s turbulent tenure as the president’s top spokesman was marked by a combative style with the news media that spawned a caricature of him on “Saturday Night Live.”

His rumored departure has been one of the longest-running internal sagas in an administration brimming with dissension and intrigue. A former Republican National Committee spokesman and strategist, Mr. Spicer was a frequent target of the president’s ire — and correctives — during the first few months of the administration.

His resignation of Mr. Spicer was also a blow to the White House chief of staff, Reince Priebus, the former Republican Party chairman who brought Mr. Spicer into the West Wing despite skepticism from Mr. Trump, who initially questioned his loyalty.

Mr. Scaramucci was to meet with Mr. Priebus on Friday, according to a West Wing official — and applause could be heard in the second-floor communications hallway when Mr. Scaramucci was introduced.

During the transition, Mr. Trump had planned to appoint Mr. Scaramucci, a 52-year-old Harvard Law graduate from Long Island, as director of his office of public liaison, but the offer was pulled at the request of Mr. Priebus over concerns about Mr. Scaramucci’s overseas investments.

His appointment came two months after the previous communications director, Mike Dubke, stepped down. Mr. Trump was frustrated with Mr. Priebus over the slow pace of finding a replacement, according to a half-dozen people familiar with the situation.

Mr. Trump made the appointment over the objection of Mr. Priebus, who thought Mr. Scaramucci lacked the requisite organizational or political experience. But the president believed Mr. Scaramucci, a ferocious defender of Mr. Trump’s on cable television, was best equipped to play the same role in-house, and he offered him a role with far-reaching powers independent of Mr. Priebus’s.

Mr. Spicer flatly rejected the president’s offer of a position subordinate to Mr. Scaramucci, according to two administration officials familiar with the exchange.

The appointment of Mr. Scaramucci, a favorite of Mr. Trump’s earliest campaign supporters, was backed by the president’s daughter Ivanka, his son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner and Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, the officials said.

Zou verder ook absoluut geen medelij hebben. Hij begon met liegen vanaf dag 1; over iets onzinnigs als de opkomst bij de inauguratie ook nog.

Precies.

Verder lijkt het erop dat de diehard Trump-clan aan de winnende hand is in het Witte Huis. Scaramucci is een favoriet van Kushner, Ivanka Trump en iedereen die Trump al jaren steunt. Steve Bannon maakt zich vooral druk om de Breitbart-agenda, en Spicer is eigenlijk afkomstig van de traditionele conservatieve GOP-club uit Washington DC.
Het Witte Huis wordt gewoon een familiebedrijfje.
Inhoudelijk zal er verder niks veranderen. Trump zal niet veranderen. Hij krijgt alleen steeds meer ja-knikkers om zich heen.

Conway said the issue of the probe is supposed to be Russian interference in the election and there remains no evidence of that affecting the outcome of the vote.

"Where is this going and are Americans comfortable with that, with the taxpayers funding this, with this going off into all sorts of chutes and ladders? ... If you're going to keep opening up every Pandora's box when the president has made very clear this is a witch hunt," said Conway.
