The Mooch has joined The Resistance

Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci said on Monday that he’s assembling a team of former Cabinet members to speak out against President Trump in an effort to find a Republican challenger to the president in 2020.

“I'm in the process of putting together a team of people that feel the exact same way that I do. This is not a ‘Never Trump’ situation, this is not just screeching rhetoric. This is, 'OK, the guy's unstable, everyone inside knows it, everyone outside knows it, let’s see if we can find a viable alternative,'” Scaramucci said Monday on CNN’s “New Day.”

“I predict in middle or late fall there will be a trove of people that will come together in unity to say this is what’s going on. This is how the person’s acting. This is why there’s nobody inside the White House he’s taking any advice from,” Scaramucci said.

I think you can hold out less hope of a Scaramucci rescue than you could of a Mueller one - much less - but it's good for a Twitter feud.




You made him your communications director.

Also joining the resistance movement:  The New York Times.

In a sweeping and ambitious journalistic project, the New York Times on Sunday launched its [Project] 1619 series, reframing the American story around a single, pivotal historical event: the arrival to America 400 years ago this month of the first enslaved Africans.

The premise of the groundbreaking initiative unveiled in the pages of the Sunday magazine is that the arrival of these captured Africans was the defining moment of American history.

Needless to say, conservatives — many of whom can probably safely be considered Euro-centrists — simply weren’t having it.

They revolted loudly against the notion that 1619, and not 1776, would be viewed as the seminal date in American history. And they seemed particularly nonplussed at the idea that African Americans, and not white Americans, were being put forward as the key contributors to the nation’s rich cultural heritage.

“How do we write about race in a thoughtful way, something we haven’t done in a large way in a long time? That, to me, is the vision for coverage. You all are going to have to help us shape that vision. But I think that’s what we’re going to have to do for the rest of the next two years,” [New York Times editor-in-chief Dean] Baquet said, according to a leaked transcript of his remarks obtained by Slate.

"Openly revel in being partisan."  You mean like Fox News?  Or Breitbart or OANN?





What does that "hopefully" refer to?  I'm assuming he would have placed it next to "out of business" if he had any knowledge of the proper use of grammar, but as it stands, it looks like it refers to him leaving office in 6 years.  Hopefully, indeed.

They'll endorse him!  Good one, Asshat.
