President Biden used a teleprompter during a ritzy weekend fundraiser in East Hampton, according to supporter and former top Trump aide Anthony “The Mooch” Scaramucci on Sunday.
Scaramucci, 60, who has acknowledged he was rattled by a frail Biden’s widely panned debate performance against Donald Trump, 78, on Thursday, commended the 81-year-old president’s vigor, even if it was behind a teleprompter, at the Long Island fundraiser he attended Saturday.
“I went to President Biden‘s fundraiser in East Hampton and I thought he did quite well reading the teleprompter today and meeting with people,” Scaramucci posted on X.
“However, that is not going to be enough to prove to the American people that he’s up for another 4 years,” said the now-pundit, who was Trump’s former White House communications director for 11 days.
The SkyBridge Capital founder relayed suggestions from hedge-funder pal Whitney Tilson about how the Biden-Harris campaign should hurry up and put the president in the spotlight more often in unscripted settings to prove he’s up to the presidency after last week’s disastrous showing.
The Mooch said those suggestions were for Biden to host an hour-long press conference weekly, doing an interview with CBS News’ “60 Minutes” — and airing it ASAP — sitting down with the New York Times editorial Board, which just stunningly called for him to nix his re-election bid, and partaking in a late-night show.
