Sean Spicer is gone.

Not like dead-gone just quit-his-job-gone.

But in the vacuum left by his exit, we're left to ponder, "Wait, a new boss is what pushed Sean Spicer over the edge?"

After all, Spicer seemed perfectly fine with a whole lot of shenanigans from the Trump administration before the hiring of Anthony Scaramucci as head of the White House communications department.

After all the burning dumpster fires, thisis what caused him to finally quit his job?

Here are some of the more egregious things Spicer was totally cool with instead of Scaramucci:

Fibbing about the inauguration crowd

Look, our eyes don't lie. Trump's inauguration crowd was small. There are so many reasons it was probably small -- the fact Trump is such a divisive figure, the threat of rain, apathy after a grueling campaign -- but there's no getting around the photos.

But Spicer was hell-bent on defending his boss no matter how ridiculous he looked -- and this was on DAY ONE. He came out breathing fire and angrily lambasted the press.

There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes, Sean.

Donald Trump's baseless allegations of voter fraud

Like the inauguration photo, this was an early Spicer move that gave us a hint of what was to come. While Trump had been claiming -- without any evidence -- that there had been mass voter fraud during the election before his inauguration, Spicer took up the torch after Trump was in office.

“I think he's stated his concerns of voter fraud and people voting illegally during the campaign and he continues to maintain that belief based on studies and evidence people have presented to him," said brave Spicer.

There has still been no evidence of such fraud provided.

Trump meeting with Russians in the Oval Office

When Trump met with a pair of Russians in the Oval Office back in May -- the infamous meeting in which he called fired FBI director James Comey a "nut job" -- Spicer was, of course, one of those to come to the president's defense.

He did more than just defend the meeting; he spun it into an opportunity to blast the media for leaking the information about the meeting, saying in an off-camera briefing, “This is clearly a pattern of people releasing sensitive information to further what appears to be someone’s agenda,” and calling it "frankly dangerous."

Public humiliation

Between being called fat by Steve Bannon and having Trump prevent him from meeting the pope, a long dream of his, Spicer has been totally fine being publicly humiliated by people he worked for. That's not even to mention all the times Trump threw his own crew under the bus in other comments.

At least when he played the Easter Bunny for George W. Bush, he got to hide his face in public.

Trump's Obama wiretapping rant

Remember when Trump claimed Obama wiretapped him in a bizarre tweetstorm? That was only back in March but feels like years ago, not months.

Not that it really matters when it happened because you can bet Spicer was going to run with the asinine allegation.

Yeah, Spicer didn't even flinch while getting into a shouting match while arguing the nuances and syntax of statements and accusations.

Donald Trump Jr.'s meeting with the Russians

Come on, are you really surprised about this by now?

As the news of Donald Trump Jr.'s meeting with a Russian lawyer continued to unravel with Trump, Jr. himself posting some incredibly incriminating emails about the meeting, Spicer stuck to his guns -- and Trump Jr.'s original story: that the meeting was all about Russian adoptions.

But Trump Jr. himself had backed off that excuse and has since been flying the flag of it being for "opposition research" (against Hillary Clinton) which is totally cool to him even if the research comes from a foreign adversary.

As for Spicer, I guess either no one sent him the memo or he had no cares left to give in putting up much of a fight.

Trump's (terrible) use of Twitter

It's been an ongoing story throughout the Trump campaign and presidency: Trump's use of Twitter to bash people and tweet terrible things (and, occasionally, racist memes). Spicer is totally cool with all of that, though, as he noted in June, saying Twitter and other platforms, "gives him an opportunity to speak straight to the American people."

Just FYI, this was weeks before Trump sent out that horrendous tweet about Morning Joeco-host Mika Brzezinski.

Defending Trump's 'respect for the press'

Speaking of terrible use of Twitter, Trump has used the platform to decry what he calls "fake news" and slam respected outlets like the New York Times, CNN, and the Washington Post, undermining the public trust in these outlets and the media in general.

And Spicer was fine with presenting his own alternative facts, claiming that the press was mean and that, otherwise, Trump had a healthy respect for the First Amendment and the press.

Congrats on saying that with a straight face, Sean!

Claiming that 'covfefe' tweet was totally on purpose, he swears
