i'm katy terr in new york in for chuck todd. welcome to "mtp daily." general kelly meet general chaos and general dysfunction. after gist six days on the job white house communications director anthony scaramucci resigned today. he was ousted on general john kelly's first day on the job as white house chief of staff. the white house's initial statement suggested that scaramucci resigned, but just moments ago at the white house press briefing it sure sounded a lot like he was fired because of that obscene and profane enter voo view he gave to the new yorker last week. >> the president certainly felt that anthony's comments were inappropriate for a person in that position. and he didn't want to burden general kelly also with that line of succession. as i think we've made clear a few times over the course of the last couple of days to several of you individually, but general kelly has the full authority to operate within the white house and all staff will report to him. >> but the white house would not definitely come out and say that scaramucci was fired
