Well, that didn't last long.
Anthony Scaramucci is out as White House communications director, press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders confirmed on Monday. "Mr. Scaramucci felt it was best to give Chief of Staff John Kelly a clean slate and the ability to build his own team," she said in a statement, "We wish him all the best."
His exit comes after his explosive interview with the New Yorker went viral last week, where he flung some extremely explicit insults towards Steve Bannon.
He was on the job for just 10 days.
As news broke, celebrities began celebrating the latest Trump administration development on Twitter:
Dear @Scaramucci you set the image of Italian Americans back decades with your thug talk and "from one Italian to another" nonsense. Later! https://t.co/E5dbJDBMvC
@MarkRuffalo

the only jobs trump will actually end up creating are post-white house DWTS contestant positions for all his fired staffers

@questlove
It was amusing saying Scaramucci for all of 10 days. #NoMooch.
@questlove
I honestly can't think of a more insane time in our country's history to be nominated for an Emmy.

This is really just another season of #TheApprentice but with the nation's fate hanging in the balance. https://t.co/o5ERi3i18Q
@GunnerGale
Spicer, Priebus, & Scaramucci sounds like the third-rate ambulance chaser firm they're all gonna start together.
@kalpenn

No chaos? That was this morning. Now Mooch is out, after just 10 days. But no chaos! https://t.co/1sT2rgCBug

I loved this recurring character, but in my heart of hearts I knew it was only going to be a 3 episode arc. https://t.co/O09llLNUWd
@Dannystrong
It took the Lord 7 days to create the universe. It took Scaramucci 11 days to Make America Great Again. Pretty close!

@chrisbharrison
I'm boarding a plane back to Oz after four weeks in D.C. And I can proudly say I saw out the #Scaramucci era from beginning to end.

@zachbraff
I feel sorry for Mario Cantone.
@TomArnold
At this rate Dancing With the Stars can have a whole “Trump castoffs” season.
