Anthony Scaramucci, who was director of communications of the White House but who was dismissed barely 11 days later, said on Monday that he continues in contact with the U.S. government upper echelons and that he does not rule out a return to politics.<\/p>\n
Scaramucci, who participated in Trump\u2019s campaign and was part of the transition team, was named director of communications in July, but was dismissed a short time afterwards when he gave an interview to the magazine New Yorker in which he openly insulted several of his colleagues in the team.<\/p>\n
In an interview with the Associated Press agency, Scaramucci said that although he has not personally spoken with Donald Trump in more than a month, he \u201cregularly\u201d talks with the president\u2019s closest advisors and that he could cooperate with Trump in the future.<\/p>\n
\u201cI still have very good relations with them and it must be recalled that we were part of a team for 18 months and each one had his role. I frankly continue playing my role. I\u2019m a defender of the president and I serve as spokesperson before the media when asked to,\u201d said Scaramucci.<\/p>\n
Scaramucci is in Israel participating in a forum of the Chamber of Commerce of the Orthodox Judaism, a group based in the United States working with professionals, politicians and community leaders to create business opportunities and to defend certain economic policies.<\/p>\n
Scaramucci, a former entrepreneur and Wall Street financier, is not Jewish but maintains ties with the members of that group. In addition, he is exploring opportunities in the booming Israeli technological industry.<\/p>\n
Although he affirmed that he is currently focused on his businesses, he said he could help Trump in his reelection campaign.<\/p>\n
\u201cI will probably be helping him at some time for the reelection, but not so much inside the administration but rather from the outside,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
