WASHINGTON ¨C Anthony Scaramucci, who only lasted as Donald Trump¡¯s communications director for 11 days, said he won¡¯t support the president¡¯s re-election and suggested the Republican Party consider a different 2020 nominee.
¡°At this time I cannot support his re-election and we need to think about someone new to be at the top of the ticket,¡± Scaramucci said in an interview Monday. He doesn¡¯t intend to support a Democrat.
The loyalist¡¯s break with Trump came after the president criticized Scaramucci on Twitter over the weekend. Scaramucci said that he hadn¡¯t been in contact with the president since faulting Trump for his handling of recent mass shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, and for comments about three minority congresswomen.
