"SNIP............


The toxic relationship between Reince Priebus and Anthony Scaramucci took an ugly turn Sunday morning when a confidant of Scaramucci threatened to release damning info on Priebus.

Arthur Schwartz, a GOP operative who has been described in media reports as a “rep” for Scaramaucci, wrote a series of now-deleted tweets in which he tried to blackmail Priebus’ silence.

...............


Schwartz offered no proof to back up his baseless accusation regarding a mistress.

He was responding to a Huffington Post story that reported that Priebus was suspicious of Scaramucci’s business dealings and apparently made those concerns known to President Donald Trump.

Just unbelievabe stuff. Scaramucci's spokesman Arthur Schwartz comes off as, get this, a bigger asshole than the Mooch.

Watching Jake Tapper destroy this fool was the best part of my day.

Does Tony da Mooch have any scruples? Will he have his friend Arty squeal on Rinsed Penis? Will the tRump administration ever learn this is not the way to govern?
