Scaramucci: "Reince Priebus and me, we are brothers like Cain and Abel."

https://thinkprogress.org/scaramucci-cnn-meltdown-39c64badff56

It soon became clear that Scaramucci was, in fact, pinning the blame on Reince Preibus. “The fish stinks from the head,” Scaramucci said, “If Reince wants to explain he’s not a leaker, let him do that.”

Scaramucci previously described Preibus as “his brother.” On CNN, he clarified that they were brothers like “Cain and Abel.” Cain murdered Abel.

“I don’t know if the relationship with Reince is reparable…that’s up to the President,” Scaramucci said.

It is telling that they are his analogy to explain his relationship with Priebus.

I'm sure he thinks he knows the respective identities of the murderer and the corpse.

However, given his tenuous grasp of reality . . .
