Don Lemon was a bit disturbed by his guest Anthony Scaramucci’s repeated references to former President Donald Trump “rawdogging a pornstar.”
Scaramucci, who was White House communications director for less than two weeks, joined Lemon on The Don Lemon Show to discuss his former boss and his recent conviction on more than 30 felony counts in his hush money trial. Scaramucci repeatedly referred to his boss “rawdogging a pornstar,” referencing adult film actress Stormy Daniels.
Trump was convicted on charges related to falsifying business records related to hush money payments made to Daniels. The former president continues to deny knowledge of payments to Daniels, as well as the affair those payments were meant to conceal.
“If Trump withheld information about rawdogging a pornstar while his wife was nursing their newborn son and he withheld that information because he thought, look, I’m rawdogging a pornstar, it may not be great for me with the conservative community, maybe they won’t show up to vote, so I’m going to pay the pornstar not to put out the rawdogging story and he concealed the story and as a result of which, he won the election, and then he got the opportunity to appoint three people to the Supreme Court,” Scaramucci said about his former boss.
He added that the circumstances of Trump’s presidency were such a “big stretch” that “you can see why people on the opposing side say, ‘yeah, that’s probably not fair, that probably shouldn’t have happened the way it happened.'”
“I didn’t need that mental image,” Lemon responded, hung up on the “rawdogging” description.
Daniels testified that she and Trump had intercourse once and a condom was not used.
“No, but you did though,” Scaramucci told Lemon.
“The rawdogging…did you have to say rawdogging?” Lemon asked.
Scaramucci argued such descriptions might convince conservative voters to rethink supporting Trump.
“I had to use the rawdogging because you have to explain it so maybe there’ll be a conservative that’ll actually download your show and [say], ‘oh yeah, he does rawdog pornstars and he is a convicted felon, but for some reason I’m voting for him. I’ve got to ask my conservative wife why are we voting this guy again?'” he said.
“Leave it to Anthony,” Lemon replied. “I wouldn’t even say that, and I say some crazy shit.”
