This, this, and more this.

I also would suggest if there's an antidote to polonium out there that he start stocking up.

Sounds to me like we can expect the white house relationship with the media to be even more hostile if that's possible.

WASHINGTON — Sean Spicer, the White House press secretary, resigned on Friday morning, telling President Trump he vehemently disagreed with the appointment of the New York financier Anthony Scaramucci as communications director.

Guess he really did though?

Just let him stream of thought it into a tape recorder with all the dirty stuff he can remember. I can get off to that.

We do have to beg for a squabble between Spice & Trump now, or for Spicer to be called to testify under oath. You know why? Just to see Fox (and friends of Trump) battle each other over how this disgruntled ex-employee is a huge liar, but only lied like a nut job AFTER he stopped telling the American people all the truth on behalf of Trump.

Spicer won't need to write. It will be like art of the deal--hire a writer to do long interviews, turn them into a book in 2 months. Will be out by Thanksgiving for xmas season.

Spicy probably imagines his media skillz will translate into becoming a Fox regular with a series of books that he doesn't even really have to write and loads of money.

I would bet against his spilling the beans though. I'd bet his book is a Trump love fest. You jokers aren't really buying 5 copies of any book he writes, but he'll pretend to write a book called "TRUMP: AMERICAN HERO" and Trumpkins will buy it and pretend they read it.

I'm guessing he is currently rethinking his decision to burn all bridges that lead to Dippin Dots

Scott McClellan's (GWB's Press Sec.) book was pretty good.

I think Spicer will want to disappear into the woodwork for a while. I guess its possible that he could tell all, but that would not be a risk-free endeavor. Just saw that he was going to stay there through August.

Because taking action against a sitting president (outside of lying about getting a bj) is a pretty significant action and one with massive consequences. The average congressperson values their own political survival over ALL else. So it is only when enough of them reach a tipping point action happens (again obvious exception lying about bj).

I made this point earlier but of all Trump's inane and highly questionable behaviors, marginalizing Bannon and Sessions and turning the reins over to his New York friends and family seems just incredibly risky politically. Bannon and Sessions do a lot to give him huge deplorable credibility. You can tell the anxiety is building out there in Deplorable America to see their dreams of the ethno nationalist state start to fade and all they have left is Kushner and the cast of characters from Glengarry Glen Ross.
