President Donald Trump decided he’d spend part of his Saturday evening attacking former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci, but got more than he bargained for when Scaramucci fired back with a perfectly worded response that put the president in his place.
HuffPost reports that Trump is enraged with Scaramucci for his criticism of the president’s recent trip to El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, where he was supposed to comfort survivors of the mass shootings in those cities but instead made it all about himself:
Trump lashed Scaramucci on Twitter earlier for his former friend’s criticism of him. Scaramucci, who served as White House communications director for a mere 11 days in 2017, has called Trump’s attacks on four Democratic congresswomen of color “racist and unacceptable.”
Scaramucci also said on MSNBC’s Hardball Thursday night that Trump’s self-centered appearances in Dayton, Ohio, and El Paso, Texas, were a “catastrophe.”
Here’s what Trump said about Scaramucci Saturday night:
Anthony Scaramucci, who was quickly terminated (11 days) from a position that he was totally incapable of handling, now seems to do nothing but television as the all time expert on “President Trump.” Like many other so-called television experts, he knows very little about me…..

…..other than the fact that this Administration has probably done more than any other Administration in its first 2 1/2 years of existence. Anthony, who would do anything to come back in, should remember the only reason he is on TV, and it’s not for being the Mooch!

But it turns out that the former White House adviser knows how to craft a tweet, too, and he absolutely leveled Trump with this reply:
For the last 3 years I have fully supported this President. Recently he has said things that divide the country in a way that is unacceptable. So I didn’t pass the 100% litmus test. Eventually he turns on everyone and soon it will be you and then the entire country. https://t.co/BUvwujc6LW

Welcome to the Resistance, Mooch.
