Mario Cantone Just Out Mooched Anthony Scaramucci On 'The View'

Anthony Scaramucci was or was not officially the White House Communications Director - he started working before being sworn in and was sacked six days later. 'I wasn't calling him Melissa McCarthy - the SNL comedian who played Spicer.

One joke that really got Scaramucci laughing was when Cantone said: "I didn't love being there either", Cantone said, pretending to speak as Scaramucci.

Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci said Friday that Steve Bannon, the ex-Trump aide and executive chairman of Breitbart News, has white nationalist "tendencies". "She looks just like my family", Cantone said, thanking her for "birthing" him. He told the co-hosts on "The View" that he was offered the White House communications director job on January 17, "and then there were all kinds of cockamamie stories that came out that delayed my arrival into the administration. If you read Breitbart, there is a lot of that white nationalist economic fervor", Scaramucci said.

Scaramucci, 53, found the surprise amusing - even declaring he liked Cantone's impression better than Bill Hader's on "Saturday Night Live".

Perhaps the most eye-popping incident of his short tenure as communications director occurred when he blasted Bannon and former White House chief of staff Reince Priebus to The New Yorker. His worst quality, to me, was he had a little bit of a messianic complex.

Scaramucci had more to say about Cantone, however, explaining that the actor must have been bummed he was sacked because Cantone was "on his way". Ten days in the White House gets the Mooch an hour on daytime TV.

He repeatedly pointed to Bannon's supposed "messianic" complex. 'I know you're rich, take it easy, we're all the same, ' he said.

Cantone then broke character to exclaim to Scaramucci, whose mother was sitting in "The View" audience, "This is horrifying that I have to do this in front of your mother!"
