Director reports to the chief of staff but in this case anthony scaramucci, as he made very clear several times, reports directly to president trump. so its a tough situation for reince to be in. >> so do you have evidence that these staff reviews hes conducting -- and again, west wing employees in the name of the president have the right to have a loyal staff of nonleakers, though it will be tough to be in the ashley parker business after that. do you have the feeling its all in the com shop or...

Focused on the communications team. as far as im concerned, its a new start for everybody in that team. and everybody in that team can stay as long as they follow the protocol of not leaking. because of at the end of the day the president is super upset about the leaks. its unprofessional. thats going to be one of my first steps. ed: what do you think, dr. gorka, new sheriff in town? >> yes. and he has a new broom. anthony scaramucci is a serious man. he gets things done. you cannot represent th...

Shop, the advisers are a good solid team. the key right here is to get on offense, stay on defense, and let the russia investigation stand on its own. answer those questions but then move on to talk about the issues that the american people are concerned with, why they got elected in the first place. and i think going out and talking to the american people will help. >> well leave it right there, alice stewart, patrick healey, although a reminder talking to the public part, the part the presiden...

They have been through these sorts of crises before, with the access hollywood tape. there was a level of scandal like that, but every single day with these bombshell reports one after another. i think this trip is a welcome chance to change the conversation. but when you have a prosecutor involved its hard to avoid the distraction especially when the stories come out. i think for the folks in the white house, theres no end in sight for this. the president signalled he might shake up the com sho...

Than fitzgerald did. and throwing himself into the middle of the campaign. throwing himself into the middle of this russia investigation. both of which he had to deal with. i think he made some decisions he didnt to have make that put himself in a jam at different places. it is so striking when you think about the last 24 hours. one of the defining characteristics of this administration, defined and motivated by impulse and improvisation. and why did he do it, who gave him the advice? it was him...
