Former high-ranking Trump aide Anthony Scaramucci issued several stark warnings to the American people and to CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, personally, about his scandal-plagued former boss during a SNN segment with Collins this week.
Scaramucci wasted no time in warning American voters that we absolutely cannot count on any of the criminal cases currently raging against ex-President and 2024 Republican frontrunner Donald Trump to bring him down. Instead, our focus should be on the threats and dangers to American democracy as we know it, if the ex-president is successful in regaining the powers he once had.
“Donald Trump became the first former U.S. president who had ever been indicted,” Collins said in the recent segment. “And now nearly a year later, he is the presumptive Republican nominee … and it’s not clear if voters are going to get to hear the evidence against him in any of those cases before they decide if he should return to the White House.”
She then turned to Scaramucci — who only spent a total of 10 days as Donald Trump’s director of communications before he was fired for speaking not-so-highly of the Trump Administration in remarks with a reporter that he claims to have believed were off the record — and questioned, “If none of this happens before the trial, what does that mean?”

“Well, I think you’ve got to take that as the status quo,” Scaramucci, who has since become a staunch and vocal critic of his former boss, answered. “I think any of those other things that could happen before the trial, particularly the documents case, where if you really read through that complaint, that’s where the most damning evidence is. If none of that happens, it’s a Trump vs Biden rematch.”
He went on to warn that everyone in the country should be looking at the big picture of what that truly means.
“What [Trump] said, what he did over the four years, what he’s saying now — he wants to go after you, Kaitlan,” the former Trump aide warned the CNN host.
“He’s made it very clear that anybody that he disagreed [with] … he wants to potentially threaten their FCC license. He said publicly he wants to persecute, using the Department of Justice, his political adversaries, and the list goes on and on. He’s courting with dictators. He wants to be part of the axis of autocracy with people like Vladimir Putin, 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, because we know how transactional Donald Trump is.”
“I think we got to get off the cases,” Scaramucci said. “We have the focus on Mr. Trump being the most un-American presidential nominee in U.S. history. And we have to go through the things that he’s saying he’s going to do as it relates to being un-American … I think if we do that, he’s going to lose the election.”
