The months since Anthony Scaramucci’s dreamlike tenure in the White House have, somehow, managed to be even more surreal. Since being fired from his job as White House communications director, 10 days after being hired, the Mooch has embarked on a bizarre journey of self-discovery, becoming almost deliberately abstruse in his frequent encounters with the media, trolling reporters with cryptic sound bites about his apparent second act. “I am now going to go dark,” he promised a reporter, days after getting canned for a creatively vulgar, on-the-record rant about his colleagues. “Then I will re-emerge. As me.” Instead, Scaramucci has been omnipresent, appearing as a guest host on TMZ Live and The View. Last month, he launched the Scaramucci Post, a similarly enigmatic media venture whose primary claim to fame, so far, has been a bizarre interest in the number of Jews who really died in the Holocaust. (“We have absolutely no idea what the Scaramucci Post is, and neither do you,” he explained at the launch event in Midtown Manhattan.)

Despite it all, the Trumpian multi-hyphenate—a Harvard Law grad who jettisoned a lucrative career on Wall Street to join the White House—doesn’t see his career in politics over just yet. In addition to shopping a book about his week and a half in the West Wing, in a new interview with The Boston Globe he insists that his brief cameo as communications director was a resounding success.

‘‘We identified quickly who many of the leakers were, and they’re gone,’’ he said, alluding to his exfoliation of Reince Priebus and Sean Spicer. ‘‘You and I both know the leaks are down substantially. And that’s a positive thing for the president.’’ He said he still chats with members of Donald Trump’s inner circle “regularly,” and is confident he and the president will be teaming up on something special in the near future. ‘‘At some point I’ll probably be more involved from the outside, but more in a re-election capability than from inside the administration,’’ he said. ‘‘I have very good relationships there still, and you have to remember we were a team for 18 months, and so we all had different roles. And so I’m still playing my role frankly. I’m an advocate for the president, media surrogate when I need to be.”

Mooch played the part of indefatigable cheerleader with aplomb in the run-up to the election and throughout the 2016 campaign, helping to convince financial industry types that even though Trump seemed crazy, it was all part of an elaborate stratagem to win over the disaffected white middle class. Later, during the purgatorial period in which he’d been promised a job at the White House but was, in his own words, “c*ck-blocked” by Priebus, he continued stumping for Team Trump on the cable-news circuit and on Twitter, notably claiming, on more than one occasion, that First Son-in-Law and senior adviser Jared Kushner is a 21st-century Alexander Hamilton. Getting bounced from the White House, with Kushner’s blessing, has done little to dim his appreciation for the First Family. Last month, he told students at Oxford University that Trump is a “political genius” and “definitely not a sociopath.”
