Resigned? I don’t wonder if the poor man has had to be institutionalized.

The President may as well leave the position vacant. He obviously intends to handle all of his own publicity. No reason to subject a talented person to the torment of giving them a job and then refusing to let them do it.

As for the “end of an era,” I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that the Ghost of Sean Spicer still wanders through comedy skits like Jacob Marley or Banquo’s ghost.
 
I can only imaging his job was mentally taxing. I hope he’s able to relax and relieve some stress.
 
I’ve noticed Sarah Huckabee Sanders has been doing the briefings for a bit of time and a few briefings even banned TV cameras. This admin did note early on it may change things in regards to news releases and briefings. 🤷

I’m not sure who exactly works for whom in the communications. But I think I would be more than a bit nervous about working under Scaramucci. He not only seems brilliant, but kind of hard-edged. He will, I think, expect a lot.

Of course, if Scaramucci has already criticized Spicer, it was a “handwriting on the wall” situation for Spicer.
 
Surprised it took this long. I bet he’ll write a book now too. Can’t wait to read it. Especially if he includes photos of himself as the White House Easter bunny.
 
…Scaramucci, a New York financier, does not have the traditional background for his new role. But recently, he scored a success likely to attract Mr. Trump’s attention – he succeeded in getting CNN to retract a story about him, and three journalists involved in the story were forced to resign… – CBS News

Sounds like he has the qualifications to handle the press office for Mr. Trump. The President will handle all the communication, while Scaramucci heads up litigation and strong-arm tactics against the media. (Trump’s supporters would all lap that up, wouldn’t they?)
 
That was a tough job and he suffered much ridicule. I felt sorry for him.

It was an impossible job, because the President didn’t let his press secretary know what he was going to say before he said it. I felt sorry for Spicer, too.

It does seem the President intended to control communications himself and there is little need for a traditional-minded communication staff. Sean Spicer can still benefit from the experience. The President on the other hand may find wearing too many hats comes with a lot more problems.

Sean Spicer can benefit from the experience the way a person can benefit from a bad marriage that is found invalid. Whatever profit he gains came at a high price. I wouldn’t wish his tenure with the Trump Administration on an enemy. The President gave him a job and then gave him no way on earth to do it well. The only thing I wonder at is how long it took him to quit, the poor man.
 
Supposedly a devout Catholic.

I hope he lands a more satisfying job.

That wasn’t enough to get him in alongside Trump to meet the Pope. Would have been better had he been a former Trump bodyguard or his social media guru.

But yes as others have said Spicey had an impossible job under this President.

It may be the toughest job in the white house.
Whether Dem or Rep, I’ve thought the Press secretaries always get abused and end up looking bad.

I think it was especially tough though for Sean because too often he didn’t know what this President thought or would tweet or say next.
