Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci  said Wednesday he will work tirelessly to support whomever Democrats nominate to oppose Donald Trump in the November election. 

If that person, whether its President Joe Biden or another candidate, focuses on what [Trump is] doing, the hate tropes and the victimization tropes, they will beat him in November, Scaramucci told CNNs Jake Tapper

Scaramucci, who served a very brief stint in the Trump White House in 2017, declined to say whether Biden should be replaced with a younger nominee. 

Its honestly not fair for me to say, because Im not a lifelong Democrat, he said. What Ive said to my Democratic friends: you tell me who the candidate is. I will work tirelessly on behalf of that candidate, because I understand the danger that [Trump] is expressing to our society.

He fiercely criticized Trumps rhetoric at a Florida rally on Tuesday, describing his disgust over the former presidents crazy stream of consciousness, which he said was laced with racist dog-whistling  that plays well to a certain group of people.

The entrepreneur called on the Biden campaign to be more transparent and allow the president to make more media appearances.

Hes got to get out there and prove that hes up for it, he said.

The Biden campaign has been in turmoil over the past two weeks since he bombed at the presidential debate, sparking a flurry of concerns about his fitness and ability to beat Trump.

Trump held his first campaign rally since the debate on Tuesday at his Doral golf club, offering a stream of lies,  fear-mongering, bizarre asides  and attacks on Biden and other political enemies.
