Here’s What the Internet Thinks About Anthony Scaramucci, the New White House Communications Director

Earlier today, Sean Spicer resigned as White House Press Secretary, by many accounts, because he was opposed to Trump’s decision to appoint Anthony Scaramucci as the new Communications Director. So who is Anthony Scaramucci? Well, you’ve already seen that he’s the kind of guy who blows kisses when he says goodbye in a professional setting.

And that he just has a lot of love in him.

When airing that montage, one CNN host said Scaramucci’s briefing had–I’m paraphrasing–”more expressions of love than in the average yacht rock album.”

What else is there to say about the former TV host, former Goldmann Sachs employee, and current guy in charge of Trump’s communications? Well, Twitter has some thoughts.

Scaramucci has been backtracking on past statements he’s made criticizing Trump, deleting old tweets that contradict the Republican platform, and committing to a hard line of ‘everything’s going great’ when questioned by reporters. So we’ve got another inexperienced sycophant running Trump’s communications. But this one has, like, especially good hair. So Trump must be genuinely happy.
