The Mooch: Trump Is Lying About Being A Nationalist, He Just Says That Because He Wants To Upset People

The Hill reports:

Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci on Wednesday said President Trump isn’t a nationalist and only claims to be one to “upset” people.

“He’s not a nationalist. He’s saying he’s a nationalist because he wants you to be upset about it, but he’s really not a nationalist,” Scaramucci said on CNN’s “New Day.”

“If you really understand the historical word nationalism and you understand what it really means over the last 150 years … it’s just ridiculous. He’s not a nationalist,” Scaramucci added.

Pres. Trump called himself a nationalist.@JohnBerman: “Anthony @Scaramucci, are you a nationalist?”
