It’s no secret that President Trump’s Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci do not much care for each other — and this was BEFORE the The New Yorker piece was published on Thursday.
After the November election President Trump asked Anothony Scaramucci to join his Administration. Scaramucci sold his company, SkyBridge Capital, in anticipation of joining President Trump in the White House but Reince Priebus reportedly blocked him from being appointed to a top job within the administration.
Late last week President Trump appointed Scaramucci Communications Director despite continued objections from Reince Priebus.
Scaramucci was understandably furious with Priebus after his successful attempt to block him from office earlier this year.
But Priebus’s antics did not end there. According to a Gateway Pundit source close to the situation Anthony Scaramucci was scheduled to meet with President Trump in the White House five different times last month. Each time the appointment was scheduled on the president’s calendar Chief of Staff Reince Priebus reportedly scratched his name off the book. Scaramucci was furious.
There is also reports of Priebus running up and down the halls in the White House like a “paranoiac.”
This week Scaramucci told reporters he does not stab people in the back — he stabs them in the front. And he did just that. After his dinner with the president was leaked, once again, to the press, Scaramucci called New Yorker reporter Ryan Lizza … and the rest is history.
This week Fox News’ Kimberly Guilfoyle revealed that Reince Priebus was a problem. Guilfoyle told President Trump during dinner with him on Thursday that Priebus was the leaker.
This story was also leaked to The New York Times.
He was rewarded for that loyalty and then went back to wet dishrag mode.
>I’ll never understand how Priebus got the COS job in the first place. The guy is IMO too obviously establishment.
Just speculation, but I think Trump was trying very hard to work with the GOP establishment. He probably felt like he had to at least try.
>Scaramucci said some leakers were getting canned today.
Trump reportedly fired everyone Reince brought in from the RNC today.
No one can ever say that the president didn’t give Priebus a chance.
