Trump brought in the slick huckster Scaramucci as Communications Director, and Spicer has resigned. I don't think anybody is surprised by this development. Spicer really wasn't cut out to make a good job of peddling lies, though he tried his best. His replacement, the spawn of Huckabee, may do better (her father certainly is practiced at prevaricating with sincerity), but I wouldn't bet on it. On the other hand Scaramucci seems like he'd be right at home, and may end up taking the podium himself. 'Anthony Scaramucci Is the Right Answer to the Wrong Question' '“Is it your commitment to give accurate information to the best of your ability from that podium?” a reporter asked [Scaramucci] Friday. '“I almost feel I don't have to answer that question,” he said. “You can tell from me and my body language what kind of person I am.” 'The answer was, at least, appealingly open to interpretation. He was certainly not the kind of person who was going to commit to not lying. Might as well set the expectations realistically.'
