It’s the end of the era: Sean Spicer, someone who has been such a constant presence in the news as Donald Trump’s press secretary, is resigning.

That’s right, the man who inspired Melissa McCarthy’s now infamous impressions will soon no longer be a part of Trump’s administration.

Two people with knowledge of the decision revealed the news and, although Spicer will soon be gone, he will not be forgotten.

His six months in the White House were rocky to say the least, so here are some of his most memorable moments as press secretary.

1. When he started his tenure as press secretary claiming Trump had the “largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period, both in person and around the globe”. This wasn’t quite true.

3. When he accidentally wore his flag pin upside down and the Internet was convinced that it was a cry for help.

4. When he referred to Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau as “Joe Trudeau”.

5. And then when he called Australian prime minister Malcolm Turnbull “Malcolm Trumble.” Twice.

9. When he accidentally tweeted (and then swiftly deleted) something that people suspect was his password.

10. When he said that Trump would be connected with Russia for using “Russian salad dressing”.
