During an interview with Sirius/MX's Dean Obeidallah, Anthony Scaramucci said that he thinks Donald Trump will lose the election, but will not foment an insurrection afterwards.
Scaramucci was once close with Trump and is remembered as being the shortest-termed staffers in an administration that rapidly churned through people. Today, the businessman regularly speaks out against Trump and has become one of his strongest critics.
He told the host, "It’s too close to call. I think she’s going to win because she’s got the money, the organization, and I think there are more good people in the country. I think he loses."
Scaramucci had an interstesting take on why he didn't think Trump would challenge the results the way he did in 2020, saying:
"If he’s fomenting violence in the three weeks after the election, they’re going to put him in jail. There’s no question about that in my mind. I think if he doesn’t do that, and he says, ‘I’m never going to accept a defeat, but I’m not suggesting violence,’ and he slinks away, they won’t put him in jail because I don’t think they want to put a former president, no matter how bad he is, in jail."
The former Trump staffer closed, "But if he’s out there blowing dog whistles and he says, ‘I want you to shoot your neighbors that didn’t vote for me,’ and you have violence in the streets in the United States, he’s going straight to jail,."
