Scaramuccia (literally "little skirmisher"), also known as Scaramouche or Scaramouch, is a stock clown character of the Italian commedia dell'arte. The role combined characteristics of the zanni (servant) and the Capitano (masked henchman). Usually attired in black Spanish dress and burlesquing a don, he was often beaten by Harlequin for his boasting and cowardice.

Truth is stranger than fiction, it seems.

I hope this works out.

President Trump’s new White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci has in the past called for stronger gun control laws on Twitter, but those tweets have disappeared in the days since his appointment.

Scaramucci addressed the issue Saturday, saying on Twitter that his views have evolved and he serves the president’s agenda. But, still, both critics and fans have raised questions about his past views contradicting Trump’s current stance on guns.


Among the deleted, two addressed gun control. In August 2012, following the deadly Aurora Theater shooting, he tweeted: “We (the USA) has 5% of the world’s population but 50% of the world’s guns. Enough is enough. It is just common sense to apply more controls.” Then, a few months later, following the deadly Sandy Hook school shooting in December 2012, Scaramucci said: “I have always been for stronger gun control laws.”

Vocal advocate and founder of gun control group Moms Demand Action, Shannon Watts, was quick to call out the disappearance of the gun control tweets. In a statement, Watts said: “Scaramucci’s comments underscore recent national polling data: Gun violence prevention is not a partisan issue. A vast majority of Americans – including gun owners, NRA members and Republicans – overwhelmingly support common-sense gun laws.”


The National Rifle Association has staunchly defended Trump since he took office in January and has remained one of his closest allies after the campaign. The group endorsed him ahead of the any other Republican candidate in the primaries and later spent more than $30 million in support of his campaign. Trump has advocated the NRA’s “good guy with a gun” theory and supported its policy agendas, like nationalized concealed carry permits.

Yet, NRA spokeswoman Dana Loesch expressed concerns over Scaramucci’s past support for stricter gun control laws. She tweeted: “I do find it concerning that Comms Director & Spox has a contrary position on #2A from President Trump. Imagine national reciprocity fight.” But she later deleted the comment and replaced it with “I hope you’ve changed your mind on this.”


Jennifer Baker, the NRA’s director of public affairs, told The Hill that Loesch was acting on her own and not on behalf of the NRA regarding her comments on Scaramucci. “Dana Loesch was not speaking on behalf of the National Rifle Association when she commented on recent White House personnel decisions,” Baker said.

Seeing as how he's a mouthpiece, his views on anything really don't matter much.

From what I have seen so far, I like him. He is intelligent, combative, and able to articulate the positions well.
The downside is that he does seem a little like a stereotypical character from a gangster movie.

Scaramucci also told me that, unlike other senior officials, he had no interest in media attention. “I’m not Steve Bannon, I’m not trying to suck my own cock,” he said, speaking of Trump’s chief strategist. “I’m not trying to build my own brand off the fucking strength of the President. I’m here to serve the country.” (Bannon declined to comment.)

It looks like the Communication Director is breaking new ground in WH communications.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown
