President Donald Trump is casting doubt on the credibility of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report because it’ll likely have information that’ll “look not great for him” and his administration, ex-White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci said Tuesday.
In an interview on “CNN Newsroom With Poppy Harlow and Jim Sciutto,” Scaramucci said Trump's latest attacks on the Mueller team is part of “his strategy.”
“That’s not him being nervous, but him imprinting his branding,” he said.
“He's expecting all the good news is out there now, and there's 400 pages of information, and somebody like the president would have to sense to know that in 400 pages, there's more than syllables,” he said.
“There's likely paragraphs that probably are going to look not great for him or people in the administration or people in the transition,” he continued. “So that doesn't mean anybody did anything wrong, but they could have been approached by people and could have had conversations with people they probably shouldn't have.
“Maybe it was borne from naivety [rather] than anything sinister.”
According to Scaramucci, after the Mueller report is made public Thursday, “the right strategy would be to lay low.”
“Public opinion is already out there,” he said. “I think most of the public has this in their rear-view mirror.”
“There's literally no way I think there's really dark things in the Mueller report,” he added. “That stuff would have come out by now.”
