Scaramucci Putting Together Coalition to Stop Trump
August 19, 2019 at 8:16 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

Anthony Scaramucci told CNN that he is putting together a coalition of former Trump Cabinet officials to denounce the President ahead of the 2020 election.

Said Scaramucci: “I’m in the process of putting together a team of people that feel the exact same way that I do. This is not a ‘Never Trump’ situation. This not just screeching rhetoric. This is — OK, the guy is unstable. Everyone inside knows it, everyone outside knows it. Let’s see if we can find a viable alternative.”

He added: “Moreover, I have to get some former Cabinet officials in unity to speak up about it. They know it’s a crisis.”

Scaramucci did not provide any names of people associated with the coalition he said he is assembling, but predicted that by “middle to late fall” there will be a “trove” of people willing to speak out against Trump.

1. k and r no text

[aeromanKC]

2. This has been what I was worried about

The GOP replacing Trump in 2020. Trump not on the ticket is their best hope at winning in 2020.
Also makes me wonder if Pelosi also realizes this and is one reason she is running out the clock on impeachment.

9. There will be no replacement for Trump

[tanyev]

14. I wouldn't worry too much about that.

If they try, Trump will go ballistic and declare war on the GOP. I think it would be tremendously entertaining.

[UniteFightBack]

29. Even if they did replace him he'll still run. nt

[MineralMan]

3. Lots of talk from Scaramucci, but I suspect not much action will result.

He's not a major player, really, is he? I doubt he has the influence to accomplish much of anything, really.

[Wellstone ruled]

6. The Mooch is just looking

for a Cable TV Gig. As you said,he was just another Stage Walk Across in this Orange Anus nightmare of a Reality TV Show.

[HipChick]

7. I think he'll do a lot of talk...

Trump and co will engineer and target him in some scandal..and he'll lay low in the sunset..

[Disaffected]

8. Sounds like a

Michael Avanatti kind of thing - all hat and few livestock.

[NewJeffCT]

15. No, he's not a major player

but, he's great at getting media attention, like Michael Avanetti was back in 2017

[dixiegrrrrl]

25. apparently he is writing a book

and I am sure he is going to include his "brave defiant stand" against trump.

[questionseverything]

26. all we need is an establishment repub to run 3rd party and split them

I will encourage that any day all day

[customerserviceguy]

31. He's completely full of crap

and is extending his fifteen minutes of fame better than most can.

[Paladin]

4. Too late, Scaramucci. Kindly disappear. (nt)

[Cirque du So-What]

5. Not getting my hopes up

but this plan looks good on paper.

[johnp3907]

10. Our savior!

The new Avenatti!

[eShirl]

11. "This is not a 'Never Trump' situation. This not just screeching rhetoric."

[Funtatlaguy]

13. Why don't they just back William Weld?

Is he not crazy or conservative enuf?

[smirkymonkey]

17. Nope, he's not.

He's relatively sane and socially liberal, or at least he was when he was Governor of Massachusetts. He is the only republican I have ever voted for in my life (mostly because the Dem candidate was completely odious and very socially conservative).

[BigmanPigman]

22. I really liked him when he was on Bill Maher's show.

Then when the Mooch was on his show a week ago he kept saying that the GOP needs a legit alternative candidate and I kept yelling, "What about Weld?!". He is sane, thoughtful and normal...what a refreshing change for a GOP candidate.

[BumRushDaShow]

16. I raise your

with an offer of a bunch of

[struggle4progress]

18. "I just adore his policies! But to win in 2020, we should act like we think Donnie is crazy!"

[bucolic_frolic]

19. We have two nightmares

Trump is reelected. Or Trump is removed from the ticket and replaced with a viable, sane if evil substitute.

Are we to be deprived of this fight?

[marble falls]

20. The Mooch is going for 16 minutes of fame. BFD. Coalitions require more than 1 member.

[samnsara]

21. I've officially gone thru the looking glass....

[Leith]

23. When did Scaramucci become someone to rally 'round?

It looks like he seriously overestimates his appeal in every demographic.

[Stinky The Clown]

24. Is he partnering with Avanatti to make the stupidity bipartisan?

[Blue Owl]

27. Beautiful clean coalition

n/t

[UniteFightBack]

28. Death by a billion mili-cuts rump. nt

[Blue_true]

30. I will pass. Knives in the back don't feel good.

Now if Jennifer Rubin set up the group, there may be some interest.
