Former White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci predicted that Donald Trump will find yourself debating Vice President Kamala Harris and issued a warning for the previous president if he did in any other case.

“It would be a disaster for him if he doesn’t debate the vice president,” Scaramucci advised CNN host Jessica Dean on Saturday.

The Republican nominee introduced late Friday that he wouldn’t decide to an ABC News-moderated debate on Sept. 10 that he set with Joe Biden previous to the president dropping his reelection bid final month.

Trump — who beforehand declared that he’d debate Biden “anytime, anywhere, anyplace” and has pushed for the subsequent debate to happen on Fox News since Harris took over the Democratic ticket — has as a substitute backed a proposal for the conservative community to reasonable a Sept. 4 debate.

Scaramucci, who famously had a 10-day stint as Trump’s White House communications director, stated Trump backing away from the ABC News plan is par for the course.

“I think it’s very typical of him but he’s 100% percent going to debate Vice President Harris,” stated Scaramucci, who predicted that such an occasion would “probably” not be moderated by Fox News or ABC News.

He continued, “This is him posturing, this is him trying to get attention. It’s hard for him but he has struggled over the last three weeks to win the attention cycle, he certainly hasn’t gotten it relative to the Harris campaign and so he’s trying to do that right now.”

Scaramucci added that the previous president understands he ultimately must debate Harris previous to the election.

“Listen, he knows if he doesn’t debate her he has six weeks of getting pounded by her and her vice presidential candidate on the fact that he didn’t debate her,” stated Scaramucci, who famous that there’s been consideration on Trump having a “difficult time with women.”

He continued, “What a disaster it would be for him and his people if she can say very simply and very concisely, ’He was just afraid to debate me because I’m more put together, I’m more cognitively aware or [I have] more verbal acuity than him. What a disaster it would be for him, he knows that.”
