+ Anthony Scaramucci, the foul-mouthed former White House Communications Director, had made a handful of interesting comments. In his first interview since his firing, the disgraced Trump associate said, "What happens in Washington... is the president is not a representative of the political establishment class, so for whatever reason the people have made a decision that they want to eject him... I think there are elements inside of Washington, also inclusive in the White House, that are not necessarily abetting the president's interests or his agenda."
On the President's reaction to the emergencies in Charlottesville, Scaramucci added that he "wouldn't have recommended that statement. I think he needed to be much harsher as it related to the white supremacists and the nature of that, I applaud Gen. McMaster for calling it out for what it is—it’s actually terrorism.”
