One more from Scaramucci's  "Face the Nation":

 

"What I know about President Trump is... he's got very, very good karma."

 

That he does! 

And that is why he asked the British Prime Minister to block the press from criticizing him and ban protests about him or he wasn't going to the UK.  Or why he has a rant at anyone who doesn't agree with him.  Very good karma indeed

I am a businessperson, and so I will take dramatic action to stop those leaks," Scaramucci said

Replace "businessperson" with "baker" or "podiatrist" and it makes just as much (non)sense.

Scaramucci o Trump at job interview: 

 

"I have principles. And if you don't like them, I have some others. Seriously, man what principles would you like me to have?"

He still imagines himself as the "great" American dictator/emperor.

On Topic :  Now with the tag team of Huckabee & this smart little short fella, the Jim Acostas and Jake Tappers will be further marginalized. 

Never happen.  Huckabee and Scaramucci will be fodder for the late night news shows, and reports by CNN, just like Spicey.  Too funny to watch them lie for Trump.

So is he lying now, or back when he was posting BS about Trump.  One or the other has got to be a lie.

Generally speaking, whenever there's a difference of opinion regarding a political topic,

y'all jump up and down and cry "Troll" so that rather limits dialog...unfortunately...

Scaramucci: From Wall Street Carnival Barker To White House Comms Director.

Anthony Scaramucci, the newly appointed White House Communications Director, has the hair and wardrobe of a stock-photo businessman, a nickname too absurd to stick with anyone else (“the Mooch”), and a fortune made from hawking high-cost, low-performance investments to ordinary people who don’t need them.

Makes sense. The con man president wanting a con man comms director.

[Elkski]

These leakers would not have to leak if they didn't worry about America.  They are hero's.  These are career people who have worked a life of honesty for low pay. The way to stop the leaks is to do what's right for all Americans.

He will be great! Just show me one politician across the broad spectrum of politics that does not lie. Just one? There isn't because the only way they get elected is lying through their teeth. Well that or twisting the truth. It's just that the ones who get to the top are better at it. In their early years they are all naive and want to save the world. But that all changes when they sniff power. Scaramucci is no different.

I thought being good at lying meant not getting caught lying.

They don't lie, they just change their minds.

Changing one's mind comes with owning up previous statements, not deleting them.

Exactly. But tell that to the politicians. All of them.

 Scaramucci describes it as "evolving"

 

I call it "devolving"

 

In any case, bullish!t mountain gets higher and higher as the political tectonic places shift beneath our feet.

"All sides do it" is a BS argument that aims to sneakily shift the discussion from the specific lies of a specific topic of discussion to a meaningless generalization.

Nope, not all. There are examples of politicians and public figures owning up past positions and actions. And anyway, we are in the present, unpleasant as it is. The references are to Trump and his administration.

Well, that took a while.  First you seemed to agree. Now you reliase and do an about face. I was referencing Scaramucci and comparing him to others that all do the same thing. But somehow that is a "meaningless generalization".

Yes, all own up to some things. But they all do lie about other things. They are all the same.

Do you often blatantly contradict yourself?

 

But, I suppose it's possible that a 53 year old man with a net worth of $1.5 Billion can entirely dispose of his passionate convictions.

For power.

 

Naa, he's just a narcissist like his boss and likes getting the attention while on T.V.
