Newt Gingrich Rips Into Mooch: He’s Full Of Himself

The Washington Examiner reports:

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci is “full of himself” and is acting “more pugnacious than effective.”

“I think Scaramucci is full of himself,” Gingrich said Thursday in a radio interview with Laura Ingraham. “I think he got down here from New York and he is all excited. Frankly, he is talking more than he is thinking. He needs to slow down and learn the business.”

“I think that Scaramucci had better be a lot more careful than he has been,” he said. “He obviously likes the limelight, he obviously likes being in the media. I would say right now he is being more pugnacious than effective.”

“I think that [the] things he said about Reince, if he said them, where is his proof?” he said. “I mean, it’s totally unhelpful having someone going around starting family fights in public and if he is going to be that divisive I’m not sure if he is going to be that useful to the president.”
