Mario Cantone nails impression of White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci

These are truly scary times at The White House. So it helps to have good comedy to help us cope. With SNL on summer hiatus, Comedy Central is filling the void with The President Show. On last night’s episode, Trump (Anthony Atamanuik) opened the show by greeting viewers from the White House briefing room and then introducing his new communications director.

“I’d like to introduce you to my favorite new team member who I will eventually betray, Anthony Scaramucci,” Trump told the audience as the brilliant Mario Cantone entered as Scaramucci.

“I’m going to fire so many people. I don’t know who it’s going to be, Reince, but I’m going to get to the bottom of the leaks in the White House. Do you hear me, Reince?” Cantone said in his exaggerated portrayal.
