Scaramucci - who served a famously shambolic 11-day stint at Trump's communications director in 2017 - offers his take on why Mike Waltz lost his job as national security adviser, Marco Rubio was chosen as his replacement (at least for now), and Trump, contrary to his reality-tv persona, is actually terrible at firing people. Scaramucci also weighs in on Trump's trade war, arguing that his recent remark about America's children having to settle for "two dolls instead of 30" was a clear sign that his former boss is moving inexorably towards caving on his tariff agenda.
