OK, let's have some rational information about what's going on here.

First COS Reince Priebus resigned. We don't know why, but I think that we're going to see a lot of career political types resigning as the president drains the swamp. I'm sure that the president and Priebus had some disagreements with the former RNC chair wanting to do maintain the Washington status quo and the president pushing for real change for the first time in 100 years or so.

In the interim, the president appointed a new communications director. These staff appointments are usually done with the approval of the chief of staff so when a new chief of staff was appointed, he asked that he be allowed to appoint his own person. In fact, Scaramucci hadn't even been officially hired as the process usually takes a few weeks. He was never officially communications director.

When Scaramucci was appointed, press secretary, Sean Spicer resigned as he has had conflicts with Scaramucci in the past. Spicer resignation is not yet official as he had agreed to finish out several weeks until Scaramucci's hiring became official.

In the meantime, Sarah Sanders was elevated to the position of press secretary from her position of assistant press secretary.

These are small staffing changes that go on in every administration. The left and the media want to make a big deal about it when it is nothing.

In fact, it may be good for the administration as it keeps the attention off of what they are actually accomplishing so that they left doesn't go totally berserk.
