Couldn't Trump just… fire them? This "he had to bring him in to get rid of Spicer and Priebus" story doesn't make sense.

dunno if i believe it, but i think the theory is that jared/ivanka encouraged him to hire scaramucci because they wanted priebus gone

I'm a believer in Trump's Razor: http://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/the-scythian-slice-of-trump-s-razor …

yeah me too, pretty sure the real answer is just that he hired a friend against all advice, then was like oh shit he's making me look bad
-
But why did Jared and Ivanka push for him?
-
in theory, because they didn't like priebus, and they knew him and scaramucci didn't get along
-
But what's the "not to fire priebus" explanation.
-
oh, that one is where trump just hired scaramucci because they're friends, and then realized he fucked up. seems most plausible to me.

Or, was he hired just so Kelly could come in and appear to take charge as the new Chief of Staff?
