"The center lane is wide open," Scaramucci said. "What The Scaramucci Post is going to represent is a center lane."CNN's Jake Tapper cited sources close to Scaramucci, nicknamed "the Mooch," claiming he was "furious" over the post and planned to take disciplinary action against those responsible for it.Scaramucci occupied his White House role, as communications director, for a mere ten days before US President Donald Trump fired him. He says he is still an advocate for the president's agenda. The man behind the postings, under the name Lance Laifer on social media, said he had run the poll and deleted it after an uproar ensued."I apologize if anyone was offended by the Holocaust poll," he wrote, claiming he had not cleared it with Scaramucci before posting. "The intent of the poll was to highlight ignorance of the basic facts of the Holocaust. I take full responsibility for it."The account has several other posts regarding the Holocaust, including questions over whether a Halloween costume of Anne Frank is appropriate.This poll was put up by @lancelaifer without consulting @Scaramucci who is traveling in London. The poll has been taken down. pic.twitter.com/SKaaPZAPow
