Scaramucci says Trump has united country: ‘It just happens to be against him’

Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci went after his former boss on Tuesday, saying President Trump has managed to unify the country against his presidency.

Trump is “remarkable” at unifying the country, but he “just happens to be unifying us against him,” Scaramucci said on MSNBC during a discussion about former President Obama tearing into Trump’s record.

“I applaud the president for unifying the country,” he said. “It just happens to be against him.”

Scaramucci has been critical of Trump ever since his exit from the White House, where he served as communications director for just 10 days.

Obama has not pulled any punches as he stumps for Democratic nominee Joe Biden. 

On Tuesday, Obama blasted Trump’s response to the coronavirus pandemic and slammed White House senior adviser Jared Kushner for saying Black Americans “have to want to be successful.”

Trump fired back in a tweet on Tuesday after his predecessor criticized him for not getting congressional Republicans to agree to a new coronavirus relief bill, as well as recent reports about his taxes.

“Now @FoxNews is playing Obama’s no crowd, fake speech for Biden, a man he could barely endorse because he couldn’t believe he won,” Trump tweeted. “Also, I PREPAID many Millions of Dollars in Taxes.”
