Scaramucci: 'Nobody wants Biden to win more than me'
Former Trump White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci said "nobody” wants President Biden to win reelection more than himself Thursday.
“Nobody wants Biden to win more than me and I am including [former first lady Melania Trump],” Scaramucci said in a post on the social platform X.
Scaramucci, who briefly served as White House communications director under former President Trump, has now become a frequent critic of his ex-boss. In March, he said Trump is the “most un-American presidential nominee in U.S. history.”
“We have to focus on Mr. Trump being the most un-American presidential nominee in U.S. history,” Scaramucci said in an interview on CNN’s “The Source” with host Kaitlan Collins. “And we have to go through the things that he’s saying he’s going to do, as it relates to being the American president.”
“I think if we do that, he’s gonna lose the election,” Scaramucci continued.
In the same interview, he said the former president is “courting with dictators.”
“He wants to be part of the axis of autocracy with people like [Russian President] Vladimir Putin,” Scaramucci said. “And just to remind people, Vladimir Putin is tied very closely to Iran now, so just think about what that means for the Middle East, ‘cause we know how transactional Donald Trump is.”
“He’s made it very clear that anybody that he disagreed with or he has an adversarial relationship in the press, he wants to potentially threaten their [Federal Communications Commission] license. He said publicly he wants to persecute, using the Department of Justice, his political adversaries, and the list goes on and on,” Scaramucci added.
