Some members of Trump media have lost it over Trump’s firing of now former Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci.
Here are some tweets:
Mooch sold his company, and this is what happens. After this, only swamp monsters and those without other options will work for Trump WH.

The fact that this was leaked to NYT as the Mooch was *fixing* the leaks shows where Kelly’s priorities are so far… https://t.co/DXmywxQNQW

Come work at the White House, sell your businesses, quit your job, get smeared in the press, put stress on your family – btw you’re fired! https://t.co/U7WqxcRVtJ

Real talk, unless you have ZERO options, or are a swamp monster addicted to drug of power, why in the world would you go work for Trump WH? https://t.co/2b0NfBFRL5

I never took Trump’s chances of impeachment seriously, but today increases them from 0%, where I had them, to something higher. https://t.co/SBqEaJ20k9

This is only a small portion of the freak out we witnessed from members of Trump media. The entire freakout is absolutely ridiculous.
For starters, nobody was talking about Mooch before his appointment 10 days ago. Before his appointment, I didn’t hear any of them claiming Mooch is a must for the Trump administration. So why is it now that firing him is ridiculous? As I tweeted I have supported Trump for over a year, why would I turn on him for the firing of someone that has been around for 10 days?
I have supported Trump for over a year. Why would I get mad over the firing of a guy who was around for 10 days? #Moochriddance

The next piece of major hypocrisy comes in the reason he came in.
According to a report from Axios former White House Communication director Anthony Scaramucci was brought in to get rid of former Chief of Staff Reince Priebus.
Jared and Ivanka brought in Scaramucci as an instrument of destruction against Reince Priebus, according to multiple sources. He was used as a tool to end Priebus’ tenure in the corner office. A source familiar with Jared and Ivanka’s thinking said they’re fully supportive of the general and will follow his lead. They were irritated by Scaramucci’s comments to The New Yorker, but from their perspective he served his primary purpose: destroying Reince.
Trump media has attacked Jared and Ivanka since the beginning. They have pushed for the ousting of Bannon and are more Democrat than we want in the Trump administration. So why are we defending someone they brought in now? Mooch came in and made huge mistakes right away. He attacked Bannon and created controversy where there didn’t need to be any.
It seems to me that some members of Trump media are more worried about what scoops they get instead of the Trump administration as a whole. Mooch was disliked by two members of Trump administration that have been sticking up for the agenda he ran on since the beginning. Steve Bannon and Gen. Kelly both have pushed Trump’s agenda from the first day he took office. Sure. they aren’t the flashy guys who are out in the open on the attack. They are the guys working behind the scenes doing the work that will make Trump’s presidency a success. They are the guys who are keeping Trump on task every day.

Sadly was far too busy at work to tweet it out, but this is the text I received this morning. Hopefully this calms some nerves. #MAGA pic.twitter.com/9S9toWDrXU
