"If somebody walks into your office and says they're friends with Donald Trump, they're either exaggerating the relationship, or they don't understand the relationship. Because nobody is friends with Donald. You're a transaction in this guy's field of vision."
"Unlike Trump's presumptive friends, Scaramucci does understand Trump, he claims. There's something called Trump derangement syndrome'; I think I have Trump reality syndrome'. I know what he is, I know what he does, I know what he's capable of and I know the danger of him."
"We fight like New Yorkers, Scaramucci says. He doesn't really come back at me, because he knows I'm going to come back at him."
Anthony Scaramucci, a financier and broadcaster, claims that nobody is genuinely friends with Donald Trump because Trump views all relationships as transactions. Scaramucci has known Trump for over 30 years and is now one of his most vocal critics. The two men have a contentious relationship, with Scaramucci distinguishing himself from Trump's presumptive friends by claiming to truly understand Trump's nature and capabilities. Scaramucci is best remembered for his 11-day tenure as White House communications director in July 2017, a brief stint he has embraced as a cultural reference point. He has since become a prominent critic of Trump, engaging in what he describes as characteristic New York-style confrontation.
