There is ambition, and there is performing a complete 180[sup]o[/sup] on your previously expressed beliefs and values in support of that ambition.
I can well imagine that his wife would question the sort of man she married, and walk away.
My name is Spice Weasel and I am a recovering Facebook-a-holic. I am approximately 11 months sober. Despite the occasional, ‘‘Ooooh, I’d really like to post this article’’ moment or ‘‘Wow, if only I could share this probably-not-as-brilliant-as-I-think-it-is idea’’ my commitment to complete abstinence is a choice I do not regret.
What I learned, if I learned anything at all, is that those people are not my friends. The ones who actually are my friends I am still in contact with on a regular basis. The ones I thought I could never live without… I am living without them just fine. Also internet media is an extremely fucked up echo chamber reinforced by people telling themselves and everyone they know what they all want to hear, driven by an engine of recreational outrage and insecurity. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it.
I’m sure others have made this point but what I’m seeing is Anthony Scaramucci is a Trump mini-me. The Mooch looks at the Donald and says “That’s what I want to be when I grow up.”
I don’t see it working out well for Scaramucci. I’m sure when Trump first met Scaramucci he was thinking “This guy reminds me of me. And I love me.” But Trump is going to discover what the rest of us already know; being around Donald Trump is really unpleasant. Trump loves himself but he’s not going to love somebody who’s just like him but isn’t him.
I don’t see this working out well for anyone else either. It’s bad enough to have one Donald Trump running around loose. Having a Trump and a half running around is worse.
The part about that story that is really puzzling is the bit where the wife is alleged to be content with their nice little Wall Street life, not the craziness of DC. I think the assholery of DC compares very, very favorably to the assholery of Wall Street, IMHO, with the notable exception of a certain colorless residence in the middle of our city.
Oh, that’s what she was talking about. I get it.
Does Scaramucci’s Mother knows what he says in interviews?
Mooch is out, according to the news.
Ten days.
Wow.
Ten days! That has seriously got to be some kind of record–even for the Orange Cheeto administration! Talk about someone’s head spinning!
Who’s going to beat that record? Kelly just got sworn in-- six days, maybe?? The Mooch is the one to beat!
Holy crap.
There’s supposed to be a written statement soon.
Is there anyone left who can write? Or is Trump just going to tweet it out?
Liberals CAN’T STAND truth bombs from Mooch! Sad.
Bannon is going to get sick of winning, I fear.
So the Mooch and the Juice are on the loose? Maybe they should be roommates on a new reality show.
He can’t do the fandango. I am sad.
But, Trump assures us, there is No White House Chaos!
I’m glad he cleared that up! Otherwise I might have made a hasty decision, and thought that there was.
We barely got to see Mario Contone do his Scaramucci impersonation!

I think The Onion said it best: Only Adult Left In Trump Administration Named “Mad Dog”.
Dramatic reenactment of Scaramucci’s tenure:
I guess Trump is going back to his roots when his ratings weren’t abysmal,and is going to fire someone every week now.
This has got to be pretty much worst case scenario for Da’ Mooch. He’s ruined his marriage and credibility and he didn’t even get a chance to get some phat lewt.
You have to feel sorry for the poor SNL writers who just wasted a week coming up with Scaramucci material.
