For a guy who lasted in his job all of 10 days,  Anthony Scaramucci has left quite a legacy. And by that we mean he's inspired some seriously clever memes.

The White House communications chief was ousted after communicating a little too vociferously with a New Yorker reporter, leaving late night comics openly mourning the loss of comic fodder.

Jimmy Kimmel scored an interview with him. No, not really. It's just some guy who sort of sounds like him and cusses a lot. You get the sense that they counted on having the Mooch around a little longer to inspire sketches. Alas..
