Times Radio: Anthony Scaramucci: Trump will unleash
hell on Elon Musk ‘in a matter of time’

Peter Burgess COMMENTARY
Trump won the Presidential Election by a substantial margin but his plans for his administration appear to me to be seriously incoherent.

Worse ... a growing number of the people he is seeking to have in office seem to me to have very little competence for the jobs they will be expected to do.

My conclusion regarding the outcome of November 5th is that the MAGA Republicans voted more of less as expected accounting for maybe 30% of the vote. The Democrats voted more or less as expected and got around 50% of the vote.

This leaves around 20% ... and this was not reported on prior to the election very well. I have concluded that much of this 20% was a reflection of conventional Republicans who cannot stand the Democrats philosophically ... which I understand, though without agreeing they are right! ... and this group voted quite strongly and more so than perhaps was expected. I also think that in this group were a number of big political funders who understand that while Trump may quite quickly be bad for much of the US economy, he is likely to be good for investors until he isn't. How quickly this will come, is not clear, but it certainly helped Trump win the election.

Biden ... and subsequently Harris lost the election fair and square. In my view Biden ... and then Harris and Walz ... were up against an impressive misinformation campaign that was enabled by a number of media organizations that are essentially incompetent and messaging that has little connection with the truth and reality. Welcome to fantasyland.

I am appalled and disgusted by the bulk of the people in politics. These people got elected and stay elected because most people pay little or no attention to what is going on in the political world ... not at the Federal level and even less so at the State and local levels. This needs to change. The changes need to be big and they need to be fast because the next Presidential election is only four years away!

  • Elon Musk and others right now they're
  • in the houseon moment with Donald Trump
  • but they will come to the Hades moment
  • with him uh it's just a matter of time
  • because you're not going to be able to
  • uh do some of the things that he wants
  • you to do uh and a lot of these people
  • won't be able to put themselves in these
  • moral pretzels that Donald Trump wants
  • to twist you into there's a there is a
  • reason why 40 of us tried to tell the
  • American people what the danger was and
  • we've been joined by Anthony scaramucci
  • the former uh Donald Trump
  • communications director turned into well
  • a strong opponent of Donald Trump to put
  • it mly and he's on the line welcome to
  • you Anthony not apparently not strong
  • enough I mean definitely a strong
  • opponent but uh congratulations to him
  • he pulled out quite a victory he
  • certainly did and maybe maybe there's
  • nothing nothing you could have done
  • about that Anthony but let me ask you
  • about that I mean you said you know all
  • over the world millions of people heard
  • you are saying that that car Harris
  • would win and win big I don't want to

  • 1:01
  • rub your nose in that a lot of people
  • thought she was going to do okay listen
  • it it's okay to rub my nose in it I got
  • something wrong you know it's like you
  • have to have to own up to things when
  • you get things wrong I mized his support
  • ultimately uh if you don't mind I'll
  • tell a quick allegory there was a meme
  • for her it was a it was a a father
  • standing in the polling booth and the
  • little girl was asking her uh dad who
  • are you voting for and he looked down at
  • her and said I'm voting for you the
  • implication was reproductive freedom Etc
  • yes but that's actually not what
  • happened I thought that was going to
  • happen what happened was there was a mom
  • in that voting booth looking down at her
  • son and the son asking that question
  • because if you look at the cross tabs
  • and you look at the data 46% of the
  • women voted for Donald Trump uh because
  • they don't like the wal culture and they
  • don't like what the wal culture is doing
  • to their young boys and and that was
  • something I missed and listen I have to
  • own that it won't be the last mistake I
  • made my life trust me uh but I think the

  • 2:02
  • Democrats have to now have a Reckoning
  • with themselves in terms of what their
  • messaging is and what their narrative is
  • you know you don't you don't want to be
  • scolds in life I don't I don't think
  • that's helping anybody condescending
  • prigs uh probably don't win elections
  • yeah yeah I mean look Anthony I'm
  • assuming you still consider yourself a
  • republican do you though not a trump
  • Republican yeah no listen I'm I've been
  • a lifelong Republican I don't like the
  • rhetoric that Mr Trump's talking about I
  • mean you know we can go over it if you
  • want he's talking about using the
  • American Military against his
  • adversaries I guess that would include
  • me uh he's talking about non-white
  • immigrants to the country in a very
  • dehumanizing way uh the the language is
  • not the language of an American
  • democracy it's the language of an
  • autocrat and I think it's very very
  • dangerous and I want my fellow Americans
  • if they can't love each other I
  • certainly want to want everybody to love
  • each other if you can't do that let's
  • respect each other uh uh but he was
  • doing things that were out outside of

  • 3:00
  • the Norms while he was president and he
  • was doing things outside of the Norms
  • while he was campaigning and so let's
  • see what he does now with another four
  • years that the American people have
  • bestowed on them to lead the country but
  • but I I don't like it and I and I think
  • people have to speak out about it if
  • they if they love the country yeah well
  • we'll see what he does and I wonder what
  • more people can do Beyond simply
  • speaking out I mean in your case you're
  • not the only Republican who came down
  • against Donald Trump this Cheney
  • famously did from a congress
  • woman her father Dick Cheney Vice
  • President uh to to George W bush I mean
  • you know no one would ever mistake dick
  • chainy for a liberal he was as
  • conservative as it gets often called a
  • neocon he was against against Donald
  • Trump and I was talking just a short
  • while ago here on the program to another
  • former uh Congressman Republican Joe
  • Walsh and he was telling me how the
  • party I listen the party that he fell in
  • love with he said it was dead despite uh
  • well after what happened in this
  • election so I wondered asked him where
  • does he go now yeah I'm not going to sit

  • 4:01
  • still I I I'm still young enough I'm not
  • going to sit still I can see Liz Cheney
  • and my friend Adam kininger and a number
  • of us putting together something new uh
  • I can see a number of us becoming
  • Democrats the point is we're all sort of
  • disperate right now now that this
  • election's come and gone and we lost big
  • time I think all of us in this
  • politically homeless space need to come
  • together and chart our way forward but I
  • intend to be at the front of that that's
  • Joe Walsh there talking about I don't
  • know jumping maybe starting a new
  • party with like-minded friends and
  • colleagues maybe even joining the
  • Democrats Anthony scaramucci are you
  • thinking of any such
  • thing you know it's a little early for
  • me I have to I have to let some time
  • pass and um try to make that decision
  • very carefully I think the uh yeah the
  • Republican party that I knew the one
  • that Joe's speaking about there is is
  • long gone um uh Donald Trump the think
  • Anthony dead for good I I do think so

  • 5:02
  • yes I think on and put away rip uh the
  • death actually uh took place on November
  • the 7th it it it it it died you know I
  • mean or the November the 5th I meant to
  • say um it it was gasping and dying on in
  • 2016 Trump finished it on Election Day
  • uh and and look it is what it is he was
  • a actually a third- party Insurgent he
  • very wisely took control of one of the
  • two traditional parties it was a hostile
  • takeover uh he dumped himself and his
  • philosophy into that party and then he
  • scared the Daylights out of any of the
  • traditionalists and so they conformed to
  • him and you know they're all there they
  • they denounced him profusely and then
  • they supported him you know Paul Ryan is
  • the rare exception he said okay I I
  • can't stomach this I'm going to leave
  • and he stepped down from being the
  • speaker of the house and he left the
  • Congress and so these other guys they
  • fell in line with him uh and let me tell

  • 6:00
  • you something the people that are going
  • to go work for him the the day of their
  • demise starts on the first day of that
  • job uh and they'll keep that job if
  • they're willing to compromise their
  • principles and compromise their ethics
  • if they're not willing to do that
  • they'll be in a food fight with him uh
  • very shortly thereafter they'll be
  • getting lit up by him on Truth social
  • you know Elon Musk and others right now
  • they're in the houseon moment with
  • Donald Trump but they will come to the
  • Hades moment with him uh it's just a
  • matter of time because you're not going
  • to be able to uh do some of the things
  • that he wants you to do uh and a lot of
  • these people won't be able to put
  • themselves in these moral pretzels that
  • Donald Trump wants to twist you into
  • there's a there is a reason why 40 of us
  • tried to tell the American people what
  • the danger was uh but the democracy has
  • spoken the people have spoken and I'm a
  • good sport and I'm a I'm not a sore
  • loser uh but I have to think about what
  • I'll be doing politically and I think
  • we've got wait a little bit of time for

  • 7:01
  • that okay it's going to be so
  • fascinating to see how I supp tortured
  • Republicans like yourself deal with
  • these dilemas just the last few moments
  • of the program I want to talk about the
  • what's going on at the moment which is
  • Donald Trump and his team considering
  • major appointments to his closest team
  • in the White House who are going to be
  • deciding well so much when it comes to
  • this really really radical agenda we're
  • looking at one of the networks earlier
  • on it was CNN they fled the possibility
  • of Marjorie Taylor green the absolutely
  • fiery Georgia congresswoman becoming
  • Homeland Security secretary well it it
  • it Stokes a memory in the mind of of me
  • and and my team here in Washington cuz
  • we were all in Milwaukee a couple of
  • months back for the Republican National
  • Convention and one of our team uh
  • multimedia reporter Joe Crawford talked
  • to marjerie Taylor green there it wasn't
  • the most friendliest conversation let's
  • remember it back you know I have some of
  • the most highest amount of death threats
  • because of people like you because you
  • choose to only take certain words from

  • 8:00
  • people and then that's what you want to
  • report shame on you shame on you because
  • no no no no you're you're the problem
  • and where's this woman from the times
  • you're from the times okay you're
  • ridiculous and you're the problem in our
  • country you lie about people like me
  • this is the first time you've ever
  • talked to me I want you to know I'm I'm
  • a regular person like you I'm also a mom
  • I have three kids and we have to put up
  • with the most unreal amount of
  • because of Little Liars like you that
  • take your job and turn it into Political
  • activism your job is the Press you
  • should report the news not no not lie
  • about you don't get to ask any more
  • questions I'm done with you because
  • you're the cause you're the cause of our
  • you're the cause of our country being
  • divided you're the cause of our country
  • being divided you're the cause of
  • President Trump almost being
  • assassinated you're the cause of
  • everything wrong inica no no you're done
  • you're done yeah go back well was not
  • what you call a friendly interview

  • 9:00
  • Anthony scaramucci what do you think
  • about the idea it may never happen but
  • the idea of margerie Taylor green
  • entering the higher ranks of the cabinet
  • under Donald Trump well I mean she would
  • be better than my old old friend Tom
  • tomman you know Tom is talking about um
  • revoking Birthright citizenship so if
  • your if your mom was here in the country
  • and she had birth to you but she wasn't
  • naturalized properly they would revoke
  • your citizenship and they'd round all of
  • you guys up and Deport you you know so
  • so I don't know I mean you know I I will
  • have to see what really happens here uh
  • if they live up to every promise you
  • know they will destroy the fabric of the
  • country you know they're they're talking
  • about 15 million
  • deportations even if they did 1.8
  • million which is the size of our prison
  • population that's an88 billion expense
  • to the taxpayer uh it'll Crush our GDP
  • it'll hurt our tax revenues our social
  • security trust uh so I don't know we'll
  • have to see what if these guys really
  • mean what they say uh we're in for a lot

  • 10:00
  • of dystopian stuff if they don't mean
  • what they say and they try to govern
  • like moderate Republicans uh they
  • they're inheriting a great economy from
  • uh Joe Biden's team so we we'll see sir
  • yeah I look said going to be plenty of
  • headlines before and on the way to uh to
  • big extraordinary decisions you got room
  • for me you got room for me at the Times
  • radio I mean may need to sleep under
  • your I may need to sleep under your desk
  • there's there's an open door for you
  • Anthony scar you me St now breaking in
  • the the times right now the possibility
  • being floated being argued for of Prince
  • Harry being deported from this country
  • under Donald Trump you'll be aware of
  • that controversy about his visa
  • application over the suggestion of past
  • drug use can you imagine Prince Harry
  • being put on a play in
  • Anthony well no but I could imagine the
  • possibility of a journalist being jailed
  • in this country now I I would have never
  • said that uh I'm 60 years old I would
  • have never said that for the first 59

  • 11:00
  • and a half years of my life but now uh I
  • think we're going to be doing things uh
  • and what happens is we'll be doing
  • things there'll be some outrage there'll
  • be some ignoring of the outrage and then
  • they'll boil the Frog a little bit
  • harder
