Scaramucci bragging of possible return to White House: report

Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci has been bragging to those close to him that President Trump wants him back in the White House, according to a report from the Daily Beast.

Scaramucci, who left the White House last year after serving only ten days, has reportedly told his friends that the president and members of the first family would like him to return to the West Wing. 

{mosads}The news organization said, however, that other sources inside and outside of the White House did not believe Scaramucci’s claims. 

One of those sources told the Daily Beast that it would “amaze” them if Scaramucci came back and noted Scaramucci himself called the claims “nonsense.” 

“[T]his is absolute nonsense,” he told the news organization. “Happy new year [and] be well. I have said nothing like that at all…Don’t believe BS.”

The Hill has reached out to the White House for comment. 

Scaramucci left the White House in August after he gave a vulgar interview to The New Yorker, in which he ripped into then-White House chief of staff Reince Priebus and then-chief strategist Stephen Bannon. 

He has since kept an active public profile, often giving interviews and offering his take on the administration. 

Scaramucci told CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday that the president would be willing to work with Democrats on issues like health care and immigration, and said the president’s view on climate change would surprise some people.
