Scaramucci signs book deal on ‘The Blue Collar President’: report

Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci has reportedly signed a book deal with publisher Hachette.

The book, set to be released in September, will be titled “The Blue Collar President: How Trump is Reinventing the Aspirational Working Class,” according to the New York Post.

The book will allegedly paint a positive image of President Trump, and includes discussion of the president’s management style. 

{mosads}”It’s an entrepreneur writing about an entrepreneur who has now ascended into the presidency,” Scaramucci told the Post. 

Scaramucci, who spent less than two weeks in the White House, says the book is about “Trump as a strategist, as a communicator and why he probably doesn’t need a chief of staff but could rely on a core group of lieutenants like he did at the Trump Organization.”

“I have seen him up close and personal and I know he has very good intentions and, being an entrepreneur, I am actually very comfortable with his operating style — despite the fact that I’m a casualty of it,” he continued.

The White House under Trump has experienced a higher turnover rate than previous administrations. 

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, communications director Hope Hicks and John McEntee, Trump’s personal assistant, have resigned or been fired within the past month.

Scaramucci was famously ousted from the White House last year after serving only 10 days as communications director. 

He gave a salacious interview to The New Yorker shortly before he was let go, using vulgar language against then-chief of staff Reince Priebus and former chief strategist Stephen Bannon.
