Clearly, Scaramucci's scientific literacy is, uh, a few fries short of a Happy Meal. If he's kept as far from anything involving making decisions that involve scientific research, then he can be ignorant on those subjects (though not globally ignorant) but harmless. He can run his mouth, but he won't be in a position where he can do any damage.
He can fetch Ivanka's coffee for her, something like that.
The problem is that the ***** crowd insists on putting the least qualified people in charge of these critical agencies. If Scaramucci were in charge of ... well, I don't know, he could punch his ticket and go away.
What we're learning with every passing day is that there isn't anyone, anywhere on the ***** team who should be running anything. Not a single person. Zero. Zilch. Nada.
Here's the actual quote. I was close.
Will Rogers
Philosophy and style
After Rogers gained recognition as a humorist-philosopher in vaudeville, he gained a national audience in acting and literary careers from 1915 to 1935. In these years, Rogers increasingly expressed the views of the "common man" in America. He downplayed academic credentials, noting, "Everybody is ignorant, only on different subjects." Americans of all walks admired his individualism, his appreciation for democratic ideas, and his liberal philosophies on most issues. Moreover, Rogers extolled hard work and long hours of toil in order to succeed, and such expressions upheld theories of many Americans on how best to realize their own dreams of success. He symbolized the self-made man, the common man, who believed in America, in progress, in the American Dream of upward mobility. His humor never offended even those who were the targets of it.
