Of course Anthony Scaramucci is joining the White House. If you look at his career on Wall Street, in media, and in public life, he checks just about every box that Trump would want for a communications director—in part because there’s a remarkable level of Trumpiness to him. He’s like Trump’s younger, shorter double, except he’s a bit of a globalist and he can speak in complete sentences.

But just how similar are they?

Two-word nickname beginning with the word “The”? Check. Everybody calls Scaramucci “The Mooch.”

Ivy League background married to a streetwise persona? Check. Scaramucci, a 1986 graduate of Tufts University, attended Harvard Law but trades on his blue-collar roots in Port Washington, Long Island.

Oh, and leering objectifier of women? Check.

In other words, Trump and his new communications head are perfect for each other. Which is either poetic—or just terrible.

1. which, i predict, will be his downfall very shortly

Trump will never accept someone who might make a better "Trump" (and who might be worth more actual money).

2. I mentioned on another thread that Stephanie Ruhle was vicious in her attacks on Scaramucci today on

MSNBC. The others were getting digs in, but it seemed way more personal for Ruhle. She was highly animated when describing him, and not in a good way.

3. LOl----I think he might out Trump Trump

While I was watching him today I had a flash that his own self promotion will always come before promoting Trump. I suspect at the first hint of danger to his "reputation" or pocket book...He will turn tail and run...with his mouth flapping the entire time. He could very well be the pinhead that brings the King Pinhead down ...

Hey a woman can dream ...right????
