'He's coming after you, Jake Tapper': Trump aide warns CNN host about ex-president's goals

Anthony Scaramucci keeps trying to scare CNN about former President Donald Trump.

Trump's former communication director on Friday issued a dire warning to CNN host Jake Tapper that echoed a similar message he gave to Kaitlan Collins.

"He wants to go after you, Jake Tapper," Scaramucci said. "He'd like to use the FBI as the Gestapo and the only good thing about that is he doesn't understand history, so he doesn't even know what the word Gestapo means."

Scaramucci did not pull the punches when discussing Trump — whom he described as dangerous, ignorant and un-American — nor did he have much to say regarding Steve Bannon, whom he was famously fired for publicly criticizing just 11 days after joining Trump at the White House.

His one-on-one with Tapper arrived just hours after news broke Bannon had lost an appeal to his conviction for refusing to submit to a House subpoena during the Jan. 6 investigation, and he seemed delighted by it.

"I would love to see him go to jail," said Scaramucci. "The comments I made about Steve, which I regret saying only because the idiot that I sent it to recorded it, but I don't really regret saying it because it was from my heart about how I feel about the guy."

"He's a very dishonest very malevolent person," Scaramucci added. "He's such a baby."

Scaramucci — who said he'll be voting in November for President Joe Biden — called on Republicans to listen to the warnings from former Trump staffers who say he represents a danger to the nation and the world.

"Let's say the 40 of us worked for a pharmaceutical company and we told you that the drug was going to kill you, or we work for an automotive company and we say that car is going to crash and kill your family," Scaramucci said.

"You've got 40 people that work directly and in touch with Mr. Trump...we've seen what he is like, the full criminality of him."

Scaramucci then warned Tapper that Trump would seek to strip CNN of its Federal Communications Commission license if re-elected in 2025.

"This is a very dangerous guy," Scaramucci said. "He shouldn't be anywhere near that White House again."

Scaramucci predicted Biden will ultimately defeat Trump with a better organized and better funded campaign machine, but hedged his optimism with a warning.

"Unless [Trump] goes to jail, Jake, he'll probably run in 2028," Scaramucci said. "We'll be dealing with his nonsense again and he'll further weaken the Republican Party, which I used to be very proud to be a part of."
