Former Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci, who has long been pro-Trump, is now changing his stance.
The short-tenured Scaramucci is now reportedly assembling a team of former cabinet members to come forward and speak out against Trump.
According to The Hill:
Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci said on Monday that he’s assembling a team of former Cabinet members to speak out against President Trump in an effort to find a Republican challenger to the president in 2020.
“I’m in the process of putting together a team of people that feel the exact same way that I do. This is not a ‘Never Trump’ situation, this is not just screeching rhetoric. This is, ‘OK, the guy’s unstable, everyone inside knows it, everyone outside knows it, let’s see if we can find a viable alternative,’” Scaramucci said Monday on CNN’s “New Day.”
“Moreover, I’ve got to get some of these former Cabinet officials in unity to speak up about it.”
Scaramucci would not reveal names of former officials that he said feel that Trump is unstable. But he said he expects more to come out publicly in upcoming months.
Scaramucci is not naming names of the possible people who could join his team. So, for right now it is all merely speculation.
President Trump is not waiting for the team to assemble and quickly launched an attack on Scaramucci, supposedly telling the real story behind Scaramucci’s short tenure.
….got fired. Wrote a very nice book about me just recently. Now the book is a lie? Said his wife was driving him crazy, “something big” was happening with her. Getting divorced. He was a mental wreck. We didn’t want him around. Now Fake News puts him on like he was my buddy!

It looks like the feud between Trump and Scaramucci is just beginning to heat up and if “The Mooch” is correct others may join in on the fun too.
