Sean Spicer is the latest casualty of the Trump administration. According to multiple reports, Spicer tendered his resignation as the White House press secretary on Friday.
Spicer garnered high ratings for cable news channels when he conducted daily press briefings. But the White House ended the daily briefings due to the growing anti-Trump hostility from the news media.
The 44-year-old New York native was an integral part of President Trump’s campaign. Spicer will be replaced by his assistant press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who frequently substituted for Spicer at the podium in the past.
Trump reportedly hired his close friend Anthony Scaramucci, a former Fox News contributor and Republican donor, as the new White House Communications Director.
Spicer reportedly resigned because he objected to Scaramucci’s appointment as communications director. The two men do not get along.
Scaramucci, pictured left, is expected to run the White House communications department with an iron fist.
The news comes as President Trump lashed out at his Attorney General Jeff Sessions for recusing himself from the investigation into alleged collusion between Trump and the Russians.
Trump said he would not have appointed Sessions as AG if he knew Sessions would recuse himself.
There are reports that Trump didn’t inform his closest advisors of Spicer’s resignation. Most notably he didn’t inform his Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, a close friend of Spicer’s.
Rumors are running rampant that Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, a close friend of Spicer’s, and Jeff Sessions are next on Trump’s chopping block.
Spicer previously held the position as former communications director for the Republican National Committee and he worked as U.S. Trade Representative for former President George W. Bush.

Bye Bih…Welcome the to new puppet :throws up the finger:
I knew it was coming! More to come. Next: Jefferson Sessions ig’nant tail. He’s been in office 6 months and nothing but messiness.
This is a good move. Spicer is an old looking 44 year old and people don’t relate to him. They need a woman in that position who can handle the tough questions but still work with the media. Spicer walked in on a shyt storm and now that things are dying down, a change will help mend the administration’s relationship with the media. I’m happy with our President but he needs to think before he tweets. I think the tweeting is stirring up too much controversy.
the whole IT department cheered. they sit right across from us. one guy stood up and announced it. then a cheer. I AM CRINEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
2 fingers!!
then they were like QUICK. Make sure this isnt “fake news”. they are the pettiest folks here. I luh them.
GOOD FOR YOU SEAN…GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN! THE FBI, CIA AND MUELLER ARE COMING FOR TRUMP. #LOCKHIMUP https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/23a1f1463780c015c645c7328c76caa3dcb02635982d1f558d41668ff8401f97.jpg

Melissa McCarthy
the whole administration is crumbling….
Yassss… in my Syleena Johnson voice….Oh when it all, it all falls downnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
There goes Melissa McCarthy’s SNL gig!! Bye spicey you were as dumb as fluck!!
Trump and the whole white house is a JOKE!
44??? + 20 ! I refuse to believe he’s 44.
People who personally know him said he can do a lot better. He knows Washington like the back of his hand. Someone will hire him tomorrow. I am glad they took the camera off Laura Ashley, lace collar dress wearing Huckabee. If a black woman looked, dressed and talked like Huckabee they would not have that job. Even if the last name Huckabee they would not get the job. You can tell he got tired of the train wreck. Someone has also left his legal team the other day. The great CEO, job creator can’t keep anyone on the job. Still laughing at how Dump thinks that the FBI Director reports to directly and works for him.
The wheels are coming off the wagon for this so-called president. And just wait till Robert Mueller comes out with his indictments. It’s gonna be some dark days ahead for the Trump Crime Family.

I would @ the person but cant do that since I went in on em last night. Any damn way. the new acting press secretary most likely will be a woman. Mike Huckabee’s daughter Sarah. She is no better than Spicer dumb ass. She too been running her ass round here hollering about “fake news”. She supposed to talk at 2 pm.
next runner up if Say-ruh dont get the job is Laura Ingraham
Spider said “BYE NIGGA!” This ship is slowly sinking for sure! ??
Smart move lol leave before you get fired. Scaramucci was going to push him out and he knew it.
Uhh yeah he’s at least mid-50’s, if I’m being very kind. You can tell he’s a drinker.
So does this mean they uhh.. actually start holding press conferences again. You know, press conferences OPEN TO THE MEDIA..?
He threatened Muller if he investigate his finances saying that has nothing to do with Russia. Now explain to me how the Treasury Dept. gonna fine Exxon for violation of sanctions, Tillerson used to (still works) for Exxon turn around and try to sue the U.S. Government. People voted for him because he wasn’t a politician but yet they got an idiot. Still laughing at his Napoleon assessment of his one night stand listening to the interview. Hilary is getting the last laugh. He should have left Comey alone. The FBI is the wrong department to mess with.
His ego, incompetent and lies is stirring up too controversy.
He’ll probably get a nice book deal too. Good for him. Trump must be the worst boss ever. For all the mess Trump made him have to go through, I’m not mad at him for cashing in.
One by one the Trumps administration is going down !!!!! I guess Trump will blame Pres Obama for this also !!!
Thank God. Take that blonde haggard chick with you
And Robert Mueller is definitely the wrong prosecutor to mess with.
America should never hire anyone who wants the job for ego purpose dem or republican this is turning into a laughing stock.
Wow we got Breitbart and Fox News in the White House. A media marriage made in heaven. Gonna love to see how he is gonna spin those Carrier jobs that Dump did that fake victory lap for are still going to Mexico.
What the ….
He is trying to build up bias against him already by saying he contribute money to the Clintons when Dump himself has given money to the Clinton Foundation and invited them to his wedding. Someone had me rolling when they said he has been a Republican for only a year and a half and now is complaining about everything Democratic.
Sandra when are u going to resigned from trump payroll?
She can’t leave because in his interview to the newspaper on tape Dump said insurance was $12.00 a year. She ain’t giving that up for nobody.
bye ashy ??
This what happens when u have to build a team because no one truly “f’s” u with trump!! Lord please hurry n let this train wreck of a presidency be over.
We’re 6 months in.
“Only” 3 1/2 years to go.
Smfh..sucks right..when his first100 days hit..i was like what?? Only been 100 days?!!
You know it’s way outta hand when this dude, who lies like nobodys business, has had enough of 45 & the gang
Things like this are bound to happen because the foundation is made with quicksand. And it seems like this administration is only looking out for themselves instead of trying to work together to effectively run this country.
Good for Sean.
Sean finally found enough self-esteem and self-respect to quick but only after he’d been dumped and disrespected.
LOL
NOW WHERE WILL MY MORNING ENTERTAINMENT COME FROM???!?!!
You think tweeting is Trump’s only problem?
Did you happen to read or listen to the interview that Trump gave to the NYT?
Who didn’t see this coming?
He got tired of spinning stories for his nut of a boss.
Like I said, the orange alien known as Ross 128 asked his lawyers if he could pardon himself, his family and staff. You know crimes have been committed when you start looking at pardoning people before the numerous investigations are over. He and his mentally challenged family bout to get locked the eff up. Deutsche Bank just dropped a dime on him and are turning over years of financial documents for evidence of cleaning money AKA money laundering. Spicer was a walking idiot. Good riddance to him.
The Congress and Senate need to force a resignation from him first so that he has no pardoning powers. Then you go after Pence. Trust and believe that shady-eyed snake has his hand in this too. So get him out and remove his pardoning powers. Ryan then becomes president but he ain’t pardoning anyone if he wants to save the republicans jobs in 2018.
I can see Dump asking Ryan the famous line fom the Godfather.
“Can you get me off the hook for old time sakes”?

He’s been in office 6 months and nothing but messiness
That’s why Sessions isn’t going anywhere. He has so much more meanness to dole out.
He’s been waiting to become AG all of his life to he could turn back the clock to the 1950s and the only way he will leave is if Trump fires him.
*dead*
so you’re saying that the bushes ate Spicey?
Ha,ha,ha!!
Lol, it was only a matter of time before he left, the man always looked and acted angry. I guess he got tired of trying to clean up Trumps ?
I give the new guy 4 months and he’ll be gone too! Trump will destroy all these fools who think that working for him would be a career boost! Who will be the next person to jump off this sinking ship!!
Yeah Spicer said he gave up booze for Lent this past season.
I am sure that his liver thanked him.
LOLLOLLOL!!!!!!!!!
Saturday Night Live gonna have a field day with this tomorrow night. And he probably didn’t quit. More likely fired.
I gave you an inch. Don’t take a mile. Lord. Don’t want to hear your mouth on this nice Friday afternoon.
It’s not my mouth that keeps getting Trump into trouble.
It’s too bad you have trouble facing reality.
Why are people cheering? This is not anything new. Spicer is just a press secretary who fields questions. He’s not a decision maker. He goes in front of the media and says what his Communications Director and staff tell him. He just didn’t like the new Communications Director so he resigned. Press secretaries resign all the time. It’s a stressful job and they can go on to something more lucrative and less stressful.
Spicer should be glad he doesn’t have to try to make Dump look normal anymore. This man had a hard job – nobody can make Dump appear normal.

Just enjoying the view from the sidelines…so nice to see the house of cards fall.
The only people who will be left in Trump’s administration are him and his children! I think his wife is even fed up! LOL!!!
Yup. She just thought she was going to be a billionaire’s trophy wife. She didnt sign up for all this extra stuff.

Was it a big deal when Obama’s press secretary stepped down? You fools really don’t know how the game works. This is why we won the election.

SO THERE
Sean Spicer’s tenure as press secretary was very short — but not the shortest ever
12:45 p.m. ET
If it’s any consolation to former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer, his 182-day stint at the lectern may have been short, but it wasn’t the shortest ever. Of the 31 press secretaries dating back to former President Herbert Hoover, five press secretaries have had even shorter tenures than Spicer, The Washington Post reported:
Roger Tubby (33 days) and Jake Siewert (111 days) were post-election fill-ins under lame-duck presidents — Harry Truman and Bill Clinton, respectively.
Jonathan Daniels (19 days) had just taken over for the iron man of press secretaries, Stephen T. Early (4,403 days), when Franklin Roosevelt died in office. Harry Truman briefly brought back Early on an interim basis before naming his own press secretary, Charles Ross.
Jerald terHorst (30 days) was Gerald Ford’s pick after Richard Nixon resigned in 1974. When Ford pardoned Nixon for all Watergate-related crimes, terHorst quit in protest.
James Brady (69 days) was shot in the head
Can’t argue with you there, Roderick!
It was a story a minute ago about him hidden in some bushes to duck questions from reporters.lmao
Well damn. Tell us how you really feel.
She was pissed that he even won. You see how she dragged her feet about moving to the White House.
Right.
It’s really irritating when a fool calls others stupid! I guess they don’t realize how stupid they really are. We talking about Trump and Trumpettes just keep bringing up Obama! He really was a great president we know, but DAMN!!!
When you are dealing with an idiot it’s best not to reply! They start to think what they say actually means something!
Wow he said in 2015 Donald was a hack politician wrote Donald a big check and got the job. If I was interviewing for a job and they saw this where I said this about my soon to be current boss I would be hired. Funny how the rules don’t apply to certain people.

“sarah Huckabee either but trump no she can lie with a straight face”
She sure can! Those kinda folk are scary!
And who will challenge him? They’ll be scared of catching a bullet!
Tillerson. He’s tired of having his hands tied.
Lol you are so right
Exactly, that’s why he hired him.

A bunch of clowns who aren’t funny.
The new normal. Grown people will not kiss Orange Shady’s behind day in and day out. The Sopranos wannabe will be out soon for stealing the limelight from the Loser In Chief. LOL
He believed Orange Shady would get those sanctions lifted so they could get to the money. Imagine the pay with Exxon he gave up. With the new sanctions I would kick rocks if I were him.
L0l! Let’s keep our eyes open.
