唐纳德·特朗普总统的前白宫通信主任安东尼·斯卡拉穆奇接受了采访有线电视新闻网克里斯·科莫谈及政府内部的内幕告知书，警告。
斯卡拉穆奇说，自2016年总统竞选以来，特朗普“失去了很多锐气”，并回忆起秘密作者和所谓的现任白宫雇员“无名氏”(Anonymous)也对特朗普说过的同样的批评性类比:总统古怪的行为与住在疗养院的人惊人地相似，报告媒体网站。
斯卡拉姆奇补充道:“这些东西对总统来说都不容易，也不是他的母语。”。“所以所有这些都显示出一个可能住在疗养院的人——我不喜欢这样说。老实说，我不想让住在养老院的人失望。”
“但对于总统来说，最大的问题是，这16个内阁级别的职位，190个下属部门处于完全混乱的状态。我认为《无名氏》试图警告人们的是，在特朗普总统的领导下，你有一个行政部门的行政程序完全崩溃的系统，”他说。
一些摘录自警告在11月19日的出版日期前被泄露，其中一句话描述特朗普白宫“拂晓出现在疗养院，发现你年迈的叔叔穿着短裤穿过院子，大声咒骂自助餐厅的食物”
斯卡拉穆奇还在白宫南草坪举行的周五新闻发布会上谈到了总统明显错误的言论，指出这一事件证明特朗普的智力已经完全衰退。
斯卡拉穆奇说:“这本书的一些[部分]是夸张的，但一些是表面上看起来的，只需看看总统今天在南草坪上剪辑的40分钟。”。
“它不稳定。这不正常。它甚至不在人们所说的真正精神健康的钟形曲线之内。他很难把句子拼起来。他在重复自己，”他继续说道。
"他失去了15年和16年的锐气。"
斯卡拉穆奇的白宫任期为六天，从7月25日的非官方开始日期到7月31日离任，这是该职位有史以来最短的，打破了杰克·克勒(Jack Koehler)在里根政府时期保持的11天的前纪录。
当斯卡拉穆奇8月份在科莫的节目中接受采访时，他声称自己是一个“从不通快”的人，科莫对此表示异议。
“安东尼，你知道你们在说什么，你以前对我这么说，现在他的新防守队员也这么说，”库莫开始说道。
“你过去常说的是:他只是在开玩笑！他免费住在你的脑袋里。他在耍你。他说话的方式是你们无法控制的。但是他是关于结果的，你想攻击他的风格，而在他做他说的每件事的时候，你们这些无法忍受他的坦率的疯子，你们都很沮丧。雪花，”库莫说。
“我是说，我一定住在城市贫穷地区因为你就像站在了另一边，”斯卡拉穆奇尴尬的停顿后说。
这位前特朗普官员接着列举了更多对总统的批评，包括利用“总统的权力”去“追逐”像他一样的普通公民。
ANTHONY SCARAMUCCI SUGGESTS TRUMP IS GOING SENILE: 'HE'S LOST A LOT OF THE SHARPNESS HE HAD IN '15 AND '16'
Anthony Scaramucci, President Donald Trump's former White House communications director of six days, spoke to CNN's Chris Cuomo about the administration insider tell-all book, A Warning.
Scaramucci said that since the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump has "lost a lot of his sharpness," and recalled the same critical analogy that "Anonymous," the covert author and alleged current White House employee, also said about Trump: That the president's erratic behavior bears a striking resemblance to someone living in a nursing home, reports Mediaite.
"None of this stuff is, you know, it's not easy for the president, it's not native to him," Scaramucci added. "So all of that shows up as a perhaps somebody that's living in a nursing home—I hate to say it that way. I don't want to put down people living in a nursing home, to be honest."
"But with the president, the big issue, Chris, is that those 16 cabinet level positions, the 190 subdepartments are in complete and total disarray. I think what the Anonymous book is trying to warn people of, is you have a system where the administrative processes of the executive branch have completely broken down under President Trump," he said.
Some excerpts from A Warning were leaked ahead of its November 19 publication date, with one quote describing the Trump White House as "showing up at the nursing home at daybreak to find your elderly uncle running pantsless across the courtyard and cursing loudly about the cafeteria food."
Scaramucci also spoke about the president's noticeably false comments at a Friday press availability, held on the White House South Lawn, pointing to that episode as evidence that Trump's intellectual abilities have completely eroded.
"Some of [the book] is hyperbolic but some of it is prima facie, just go to the 40 minutes of president's clipping today on the South Lawn," Scaramucci said.
"It's not stable. It's not normal. It's not even inside of a bell curve of what people would describe as real mental health. He's having a hard time putting sentences together. He's repeating himself," he continued.
"He's lost a lot of the sharpness he had in '15 and '16."
Scaramucci's White House tenure of six days, from his unofficial start date on July 25 through his departure on July 31, is the shortest in history for that position, which broke the former record of 11 days that had been held by Jack Koehler in the Reagan administration.
When Scaramucci appeared in an interview on Cuomo's show in August, he claimed to be a "never Trumper," which Cuomo took issue with.
"You know what you guys say, Anthony, you used to say this to me and now his new defenders say it," Cuomo began.
"What you used to say is this: He's just joking! He's living in your head rent-free. He's messing with you. He talks in a way that you guys can't handle. But he's about results and you want to attack his style and all the while he's doing everything he says and you crazy people who can't handle his frankness, you get all upset. Snowflakes," said Cuomo.
"I mean, I must be living in the Twilight Zone because you're like taking the other side of this," Scaramucci said after an awkward pause.
The former Trump official went on to list more criticisms of the president, including using the "power of the presidency" to go "after private citizens" like himself.
