In a predictable turn of events, President Donald Trump unleashed his anger at his short-lived communications director Anthony Scaramucci, who went on CNN Monday morning to advocate for Republicans replacing the President on the 2020 ballot.

Scaramucci predicted that a “trove” of likeminded Republicans would reveal themselves in “middle to late fall.” He declined to name any possible contenders to replace Trump on the ballot.
