President Trump’s former White House Director of Communications during his first term, Wall Street financier Anthony Scaramucci, who has become a vocal critic of the President, was interviewed by Bloomberg this week. The title of the article is ‘Anthony Scaramucci: My Wall Street Buddies Regret Voting for Trump.’
Billionaire Wall Street financier Daniel Loeb responded to Scaramucci’s article, saying: “I talk to people on Wall Street every day. I have heard some belly aching about the President from time to time, but I have literally not once heard a single person say they regret voting for Trump or, ‘gee, if only Kamala had won, we would be so much better off.’”
Conservative CNBC Squawk Box host Joe Kernen replied to Loeb: “Literally 0 for me, as well.”

Scaramucci, who mentioned in the Bloomberg interview that he’s still a registered Republican, replied to Loeb: “There is still time to become a butterfly Dan, but it would require you to get out of your cocoon of confirmed biases; there is a reason why they like Zohran and if it’s not fixed it will worsen. Don’t stay a (inserted purple caterpillar emoji) Dan.”
Loeb replied: “You ok, bro? Shabbat Shalom. Call you Monday.”

[NOTE: More than one X user defended Scaramucci, writing comments including, “Wall St has a warped sense of reality just like Hollywood…. Dan should talk to people paying higher insurance premes, high gas prices, closed regional hospitals, higher food prices, having ICE terrorize innocent people…. Wall Street is Marie Antoinette and the people are hungry.”]
