Morning Mika: Anthony Scaramucci ‘Unhinged Mack Truck of a Person’

With Joe Scarborough on vacation — again, MSNBC viewers were treated on Tuesday to another edition of Morning Mika. Under co-host Brzezinski’s stewardship, the regular gang took stock of the earthquake at the White House yesterday which resulted in the ouster of Comms Chief Anthony Scaramucci.

Brzezinski has never been much of a fan of the foul-mouthed financier and in his obituary Tuesday she made it known calling him an “unhinged Mack truck of a person.”

… tell us how you really feel.

The remark came in a segment ostensibly designed to mock Sarah Sanders‘ painful explanation of Scaramucci’s exit from the White House.

“Even as late as Sunday evening, Scaramucci told MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle he believed the fallout from his New Yorker interview would blow over,” Brzezinski said before reading excerpts from a New York Times report indicating that was not the case.

She then derided Donald Trump’s “a great day at the White House” tweet as a contrived attempt at 7-D chess (or 4-D Hungry Hungry Hippos)

A great day at the White House!

“Do I understand that to be them saying that they planned this? Because nobody plans to bring in a colossal disaster, an unhinged mac truck of a person to drive through the White House, spewing profanity and then to say ‘oh we planned that.’

“This is really….” — she then trailed off.
