The pattern is familiar by now: Trump praises someone when he hires them and dumps on them once he’s fired them — or, in some cases, before that
Anthony Scaramucci is the latest former Trump official to draw his old boss’s ire.

Someone who’s put complete idiots in vital positions of power. Someone who’s entrusted major administration initiatives to halfwits.
Michael Cohen Before: When Cohen first entered his orbit, Trump was still three years away from starting @realDonaldTrump, so he didn’t publicly lavish Cohen with praise. Still, it’s clear that Trump liked Cohen, whom he once called “a fine person with a wonderful family.” After: By January 2018, Trump had turned on Bannon, branding him “Sloppy Steve” after the publication of Michael Wolff’s Fire and Fury, in which Bannon was extensively quoted. Bannon, Trump tweeted, “cried when he got fired and begged for his job.”
Jerome Powell Before: In November 2017, Trump passed over Janet Yellen for a second term as chair of the Federal Reserve, appointing Jerome Powell in her place. “He’s strong, he’s committed, he’s smart,” Trump said in the White House Rose Garden. “I am confident that with Jay as a wise steward of the Federal Reserve, it will have the leadership it needs in the years to come.”
After: Scaramucci lasted 11 days in the job and returned to his anti-Trump roots in 2019. Now that he’s putting together a team of anti-Trump Republicans, the man who was once put in charge of promoting the administration’s message is “totally incapable” and “a highly unstable ‘nut job.’”
