Anthony Scaramucci: “He Wants Them to Lose”

John welcomes back Skybridge Capital founder and Trump Wall Street apostate Anthony Scaramucci to discuss the president’s mindset and machinations as he barrels towards a brutish repudiation in the midterm elections. Scaramucci—who served an inglorious, 11-day stint as White House communications director in 2017—explains how Trump’s view of his power to save his party sits alongside his barely concealed desire to see its members crash and burn; how his attacks on the Pope earlier this year were a roundabout effort to mess with JD Vance; and why Natalie Harp is more likely to be Trump’s nursemaid than concubine. The Mooch also expounds on his new book, “All the Wrong Moves: How Three Catastrophic Decisions Led to the Rise of Trump.”
