**ENTER THE TRUMPDOME!**a
?
In the opera Das Rheingold, Wotan asks Albreich, “Are you malignant, or merely insane?”
Do you mean as the result of a fatal spinal dislocation or an utter lack of interest in anything else whatsoever?
Trump was elected with red neck reaction to a Black President, Bill Clinton’s infidelity, hatred of foreigners and many Democrats, like me, thinking that there was no way in hell that a buffoon like Trump could ever be elected.
About twenty minutes till Rachel Maddow comes on. Might watch that tonight. Cute as the Dickens when she blushes.
Yeah, that. That in its entirety.
‘Stupid’ is if the new Hindbrain of Sauron is not successful in achieving his goals. What are his likely goals? Almost certainly to personally enrich himself (like Trump) - possibly also to get his face constantly in the media (also like Trump).
Is telling easily disproved lies in public going to get in the way of becoming rich and (in)famous? Apparently not. So - not stupid. The other thing.

Trump voter: “Aw shucks, nah, I don’t agree with every thang he or his staff says, but I shore do wish libruls would give our president a chance. Seems like all they do is pray to Satan for our 'Merkun president to fail”
Holy shit! That–that wasn’t from The Borowitz Report?!?
The Onion has recently put a piece from back in January on their front page: ‘Nothing Would Surprise Me At This Point,’ Says Man Who Will Be Shocked By 8 Separate News Items Today.
I think that pretty well sums it up.
Good call, she blushed at the end.
Joe Pesci is supposed to call in on The Last Word to read the Mooch’s rants. I await with baited breath.
Gosh. I’m really liking this side of you.
“It’s what we expect of Harvardians,” said the Eli, sniffily.
One can only watch so much Studio Wrestling before one needs something a bit stronger?
Well, he certainly is communicating…
John, that merely shows he is educated, which means he is not ignorant. It does not mean he is not stupid. Admittedly, Ignorance and Stupidity are often used as synonyms, but IMHO they are two very different things. And this character (or at least his actions to date) are the very essence of stupid.
And to answer the question posed by the OP, to wit: “Is Scaramucci really this fucking stupid?” Yes. Yes he is.
IMHO as always. YMMV.
According to his Twitter, he asked four hours ago, but has yet to receive an answer. My night is ruined.
IIUC Reince Priebus is the man that the establishment conservatives considered acceptable, Trump took him into the White House to give the sign to them that he was going to work with the closer to normal Republicans.
Seems that Trump found a bird of a feather to make the more normal ones to flee or to counteract them…
Time to choose now: will the normal conservatives also fight to ensure that the more normal people will be allowed to govern, or will they allow and defend the rule of unhinged mercenary gangster democracy?
The really mind blowing thing to me is that Mooch was given so much authority so quickly. His hatred for Trump up till a couple months ago was vitriolic. And now all the sudden he is the favored son of Mr. all about loyalty, with the most absurd toadying statements about submitting his agenda to Trump’s. I don’t think he actually is, but the Never-Trumpers have got to be kicking themselves about how easy it would have been to get a shill who speaks Jersey Shore to Yoko Ono the thing and get him to turn on his people.
I think I understand this sentence, and frankly, that worries me a little.
Comedy Central has got their Scaramucci. He’s dead on in appearance and imitation. That was fast! (He also looks kind of familiar) Its that full on Trump show, and this the most I’ve seen of it, but that five minutes was brilliant! Probably out there somewhere, go get, go laugh! Joe Bob 'luc says “Check it out!”.
