Former White House Director of Communications Anthony Scaramucci didn’t last long in the Trump administration and since leaving that three-ring circus, he’s served as one of the biggest, most vocal critics of Donald Trump there is.
Over the course of Trump’s presidency, Scaramucci hasn’t left a single stone unturned — speaking out on everything from the behavior he saw out of Trump during his short time working for him in the White House to Donald’s very public impeachment process.
And Trump’s profound racist rhetoric surrounding the coronavirus outbreak in the United States has been no exception to his scorn for his former employer.
This morning, Scaramucci sat down for a segment with MSNBC to not only discuss the racist rhetoric that’s coming directly from the president of the United States but also whether or not Scaramucci feels that Donald is using such racist rhetoric and behaviors to directly appeal to his white base as this year’s election creeps closer and closer.

Trump’s former employee claims that the president’s use of blatantly racist terminology when referring to the potentially deadly virus, such as “Kung Flu” among a few other racist descriptors to hone in on the Chinese origin of the illness, is a result of Donald “experimenting.”
“He is searching for what he thinks is the Rubik’s Cube answer to getting him reelected, and that is more white turnout in November,” Scaramucci stated. “And so, he’s decided he’s going to make this a race-baiting race war, he’s going to do everything he can to defy the people… and he’s hoping he can get his base to turn out in terms of voter participation at a higher percentage than last time.”
“By August, he’ll have a much more refined, much more negative, much more racist pitch,” the former White House Director of Communications concluded.
Frankly, I can’t say that I doubt this one bit.
Trump knows that his chances at another term in the White House are swirling the drain. It certainly comes at no surprise that an already racist individual would up the ante on his racism if he thinks it stands a chance to help him.
