Trump regularly calls Anthony Scaramucci for advice - even though hes banned from the White House



https://www.rawstory.com/2018/03/trump-regularly-calls-anthony-scaramucci-advice-even-though-hes-banned-white-house/

Anthony Scaramucci is banned from the White House, but he’s reportedly back in touch with President Donald Trump.

The former White House communications director is blocked from entering his former workplace without special approval, and he told “Fox & Friends” over the weekend that he had to go on TV to reach the president.

But Politico reported Monday that Trump has resumed calling Scaramucci to talk about policy and cheer up the embattled president.

Scaramucci, who was fired by chief of staff John Kelly after just 11 days in the White House, is among a couple dozen friends and allies Trump calls for advice, according to close White House advisers.

Most of them, I bet, and the tapes must be fascinating.

he didn't even reach his official start date, so mueller might not think it useful to wiretap him. there might not be enough to even convince a judge that a wiretap is appropriate.

conversely, if they're wiretapping the mooch, they're wiretapping *every*body.
