The newly installed White House communications director has been hurriedly deleting embarrassing tweets in which he insulted his new boss Donald Trump.

Mr Scaramucci ramped up his attacks in 2015 and tweeted a picture of a wall, writing: ‘Walls don’t work. Never have never will. The Berlin Wall 1961-1989, don’t fall for it.’ And in a TV interview with Fox, also in 2015, he described Mr Trump as a ‘hack politician’ whose rhetoric is ‘anti-American’.

Mr Scaramucci, 53, is the Italian-American son of a construction worker from Port Washington in Long Island, New York.

He went to Harvard Law School and worked for Goldman Sachs before founding SkyBridge, which is now worth $12 billion. 

His appointment has reportedly caused deep divisions within the White House and was followed by the resignation of press secretary Sean Spicer.
