'The Mooch' Apologizes To MSNBC's Rachel Maddow

Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci apologized to MSNBC host Rachel Maddow after suggesting Friday morning she and other liberals should take a “suppository” to treat their “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

“I apologize to @maddow: that was a lighthearted joke that could be blown out of proportion. She is extremely talented and while we may disagree on some stuff she has an important voice in our national discourse,” Scaramucci tweeted.

Scaramucci made the controversial remark during an interview with Fox News’ “Fox and Friends” on Friday morning, according to The Washington Examiner.

The show highlighted a segment from Maddow’s show Thursday night, during which she criticized President Trump’s decision to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and said it could be “a risky or unwise move.”

“You can tell she’s got a little bit of that Trump Derangement Syndrome, which I like,” Scaramucci told Fox News. “I'm hoping that one of these comedians will come up with anti-anxiety medication for liberals. Just take one tablet a day, maybe a suppository, and take it easy.”



“It’s morning. I had to wake everybody up with that,” Scaramucci continued as the hosts reacted with surprise to his statement. “The president is doing the right thing for the American people, but he’s also doing the right thing for the world.”
