Since 9/11 America has indeed been going to hell in a handcart, acting aggressively and often unilaterally on the world stage, increasing its domestic surveillance, and expanding a for-profit prison industry, while letting the country's infrastructure and middle class continue to decline. Compared to these factors, the personal feelings of the White House communications director don't bother me very much. His job is to report on policy, not set it.
In any case, it's debatable if the article accurately reflects what Scaramucci said / believes. The offending quotes in question are that "people have gotten things wrong throughout the 5,500-year history of our planet" and something to the effect of "human history is 5,500 years old." It's not much of a stretch to assume that both quotes are referring to written history, which is typically thought to have begun around 3000 BCE.
Rather than reporting on the real problems that are affecting America, the MSM is content to distract the populace with the current version of "bread and circuses" - endless anti-Trump and anti-Russia hysteria. Don't fall for it.
