 Scaramucci: Trump ‘coming to grips’ with defeat, ‘growing darker’
by Tara Suter - 08/16/24 9:35 AM ET

Ex-White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci said Thursday that former President Trump is “coming to grips” with not recapturing the White House, and “growing darker” as a result.

“Trump psychologically is coming to grips with losing this election. He is growing darker as a result of it,” Scaramucci said in a post on the social platform X.

“Will be a rough 81 days,” Scarmucci, who served briefly in the Trump administration before becoming a vocal critic of the former president, added.

Trump has slung multiple personal insults at Vice President Harris, who is expected to become the Democratic presidential nominee at next week’s convention. Republicans, however, have been pushing the former president to turn his attention toward policy differences.

“The winning formula for President Trump is very plain to see,” Former Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway told Fox Business anchor Larry Kudlow earlier this week. “It’s fewer insults, more insights and that policy contrast.”

Trump said at a Thursday press conference that he was “entitled to personal attacks” aimed at Harris.

“I don’t have a lot of respect for her,” Trump said. “I don’t have a lot of respect for her intelligence, and I think she’ll be a terrible president.”

“And I think it’s very important that we win,” Trump continued. “And whether the personal attacks are good, bad. She certainly attacks me personally. She actually called me weird.”

Does anybody really believe that young people, suburban women, minorities, especially those in the urban areas, were  going to vote for a cranky old white guy whose campaign is collapsing and is starting to show his age over a fairly young exciting vibrant fresh candidate?

I wonder if subconsciously Trump is sensing it also.
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

Mr. Trump on QueMala:

Is there any member of this forum who disagrees with anything he said above?

Can't speak for anyone else, but my guess is the answer is "no".

The problem is that the membership of this forum is very far from a representative cross-section of the electorate.

Ha ha, good one.

I disagree.  Like it or not we have two viable candidates to select from for president; Trump or Harris.

Anyone who hasn't been affected by the woke leftists, inflation, border invasion and the 'green energy insanity' isn't breathing. That vs. a president that had us pointed in a much better direction.

I'd say we very much represent a cross-section of the 'sane' electorate.

With a busy life I'm not on this forum as much as I use to, but the anti-Trump sentiment has grown immensely.   Now I'm no huge fan of Trump and never have been, though I did vote for him, but I'll be damed if I'm going to wish for his loss, which some here seem more inclined to do now.

I haven't seen any support for Kamala Harris.  Trump, on the other hand, behaves as though he would rather be doing something else.  If he loses the most important election ever to these blithering bolsheviks, the responsibility is his and his alone.

If he loses its completely on him. Every time I think he's finally sticking to the issues that are important to voters he says something stupid, handing the Harris campaign a free gift. If what he said about The Medal of Honar is factually true and it makes mainstream News, its over.

I agree completely.  With the choice we have with this election, Trump is a 100, and Harris is a 1 from my perspective, with 100 being the highest rank one can have.  This should be no contest, but Trump does appear to be going out of his way to lose this election.

His personal attacks could not be more moronic if he tried.  I know too many folks that dislike him because of it, and will not vote for him.  EVERY BLACK I KNOW IS VOTING FOR HARRIS.  It is not a mystery, and he needs to stop alienating segments of the electorate, or he will lose straight up to the dumbest politician I have ever seen.

If Scaramucci possesses such insight into Donald Trump, perhaps Tony can explain how he didn't know Trump would fire his ass for recording an on-the-record media interview, in the full capacity of his WH Communications Director, while stone cold, word slurring, profanity screaming drunk.

11 days and out ----- kicked off AF One:




Anthony Scaramucci is a loser who should be shunned or laughed at ---- not elevated as an insider and believed.  But, then I remember he's talking to "not Trumps" --- who don't want Trump's policies discussed any more than Barack Obama does --- and I understand who's helping this 11 day marvel keep escaping his asylum.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Is anyone buying the whole Kamala better than Trump PSYOP?

It's what you do when you have full control of the media and a few 'formers' with a beef and desire to be relevant again (and make a little scratch on the side). You can't tell me those fired in the past don't get compensated somehow for their jabs aimed at their former boss.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
