Not all heroes wear capes: Tom Arnold is glad to take credit for Anthony Scaramucci having 'turned' against Trump

Anthony Scaramucci’s in the process of ~~realizing that being in the Resistance will score him more TV gigs~~ seeing the error of his Trump-loving ways.

To those asking, “what took so long?” You’re right. I tried to see best in @realDonaldTrump based on private interactions and select policy alignment. But his increasingly divisive rhetoric – and damage it’s doing to fabric of our society – outweighs any short-term economic gain.

For what it’s worth, Occupy Democrats writer and Resister Grant Stern understands that Scaramucci didn’t come to the light on his own. He had some help:

He's turned because @TomArnold got to him. Force of nature.

Ah yes. Tom Arnold. That force of nature! He turned Michael Cohen, and now he’s turned Anthony Scaramucci. He’s so humble about it, too:

Thanks Grant. I’ve certainly encouraged Scaramucci to flip in my own gentle way. I also told him to ignore the trolls now. He does not owe anyone anything. Don’t engage. Keep hammering Trump. It’s dangerous times. Only go forward until this is over. Then he can do introspection. pic.twitter.com/3NTL6SEl5n

Tom is a miracle worker! It’s only a matter of time before Trump himself joins the Resistance.
