person. i appreciate your agenda here, but the reality is, no, hold on. at some point, we ll report the facts. you re asking me a question and i m going to answer it. the president, i m sorry, please stop shaking your head again. we didn t use chemical weapons in world war ii. you had someone as despicable as hitler who didn t sink to using chemical weapons. sean, answer the question, please. sean. come on, sean. white house sources tell spicer adamantly opposed the hiring of anthony scaramucci and so did steve bannon but ivanka encouraged it. president trump reportedly asked spicer to stay on. the president even tweeted, sean spicer is a wonderful person who
spicer represented that way from the gop and today, there was a dust-up with the scaramucci feed and said things do not agree with the president and do not agree with the base and announced to erase those and quote unquote full transparency because he s evolved, right? i think this is an example of this adage it doesn t matter what you say but how you say it and scaramucci is better at saying, his translation, his tone, his delivery than spicer is even if the line that spicer was delivering from that podium is not that different from the line scaramucci will be delivering from the podium even if it does not match with what scaramucci said two years ago about who agrees more with the president or who is more in line with the base. your thoughts on that but also ask, do you think that the relationship between the white house and the press changes with scaramucci? i think it was very interesting that the first one on one interview scaramucci gave after being named new
hired and said, listen, it s him or me. the president refused to change his mind, so spicer resigned. so i think he s playing nice for the cameras or hoping future employers might see this and judge him kindly but definitely, not happy about the new hire and refused to work with him. let me read you how the far right is reacting to this change. this is from one far right writer who said the base supports muc because he doesn t view himself better as the base. spicer are snobs and want to pretend like we didn t exist. use the base before returning to business as usual. do you agree and then get your take, kelly jane, as well. there is a pushback from a lot of the base and from these more unorthodox wings of the gop and fresher ones to push back against the traditionalists which is reince priebus and sean
took tremendous abuse from the fake news media but his future is bright. what does scaramucci bring that spicer lacked? scaramucci has experience on television, a certain suaveness when he speaks. in his opening press conference, he was complimentary when spicer was combative. even though answers were not fully and revealing anymore information than spicer did, a little more new york, a little more polished than sean spicer even though sean spicer has far more experience in washington, dc than anthony scaramucci. but we ll keep seeing sarah huckabee sanders at that podium. the communications director role where you have to be dealing with the president, other senior members of the administration and thinking about how to package the message going out but not standing behind the
podium every day with the person behind the podium is for the last few weeks which is sanders. she hasn t even been on camera the last. her last on-camera press briefing before yesterday was june 29th. and that s an opening question that scaramucci will deal with. do they continue this policy of keeping everything off camera or shift on that because it s a new day with new guy in charge? unclear where that will go but an announcement of going forward and friday s press conference was a unique on-camera event as you just said, but you have a closer relationship personally between the president and scaramucci right now. so will that change things because a lot of this has been every time something goes wrong, the president blames the communications side of things and said the communications failure and mistake and lot of that is falling on the feet of sean spicer. does it turn the page because scaramucci just likes each other better than maybe the president and spicer did? he s fairl
