As the newly minted White House press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders spent most of her first briefing on Friday standing off to the side. Anthony Scaramucci, the just-named communications director, was dominating the lectern that Ms. Sanders had inherited only hours earlier, professing his love — 20 times — for President Trump and his administration.
It was an awkward convergence for the first on-camera news briefing in weeks, even in a White House split by warring factions. Where Ms. Sanders tends to the dry and sardonic, Mr. Scaramucci is over the top.
Four times Mr. Scaramucci said, “I love the president.” He also expressed his affection for Ms. Sanders; Reince Priebus, the White House chief of staff; and Sean Spicer, Mr. Trump’s first White House press secretary, who had resigned earlier Friday to protest Mr. Scaramucci’s appointment.
“I love these guys; I respect these guys,” Mr. Scaramucci gushed. Later, of the president, he said: “The president has really good karma, O.K.? And the world turns back to him. He’s genuinely a wonderful human being.”
