So Rance Priebus is out..General Kelly is in.
Any bets on how long he'll last?

Scaramuccie just got told to fandango. Never mind, he's served his purpose as the distraction.

Well. That certainly sets the bar for future Trump Administration appointees. They'll have to work extra hard to get fired faster than that. I'll bet it'll be weeks at least until we see someone get fired the day he's hired.

Do you folks want NATO to send in troops to restore order?

“Mama, I just got canned …
Barely got to the White House,
Said some dumb stuff now I’m out …
Mama, my job had just begun,
And now I’ve gone and thrown it all away.”

One commenter on a Washington Post article imagined a conversation between Trump and Sarah Huckabee Sanders about the Mooch's firing. She tells POTUS that Scaramucci said something threatening to General Kelly about "sleeping with fishes." The general responded with a remark about "trained SEALs."
