Former Trump Adviser: Donald Thinks He’s Going To Lose – His ‘Overconfidence’ Is An Act

As he strutted around the stage at Madison Square Garden on Sunday evening, failed former president and convicted felon Donald Trump seemed to exude confidence, bragging that he would defeat Vice President Kamala Harris in a landslide.

But it was all an act, according to former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci.

Scaramucci was a guest on “Morning Joe” Monday, and he said Trump is faking confidence because he thinks he’ll lose the election.

“I’m a little contrarian with this,” Scaramucci said. “I think he thinks he is going to lose. You’ll say to me, why do you think that? Because there is an overbite. It’s like Shakespeare – ‘you protest too much.’ He’s saying he is going to win by, ‘Oh, by the way, we have this little secret, me and the speaker, we have this little speaker [of the House Mike Johnson].'”

Indeed, Trump hinted that Johnson would declare a contingent election and have the House of Representatives name the Republican nominee as the 47th president.

“In his heart, he doesn’t see himself winning,” Scaramucci added. “You can see by the whole exaggeration of everything that’s going on, there’s too much of an overconfident overbite. You know, you were showing clips of [Mitt] Romney’s campaign. I was on the campaign. We were overconfident because we were sitting in the Fox News silo. These guys are overconfident based on nothing other than the fact they need to project that, because if he loses, they want to chip out there to contest the election.”

“That’s what I really think. I think he thinks he’s going to lose. I didn’t say he was going to lose, I think he thinks he is going to lose.”

Let’s all hope that Trump does lose. If he doesn’t, this country is doomed.
