Trump Associate Tries To Spin Tweet Suggesting Dems Behind Anti-Semitism
By ESME CRIBB Published MARCH 1, 2017, 10:33 AM EDT
Anthony Scaramucci, an associate of President Trump, tried on Wednesday to walk back a tweet apparently suggesting that Democrats were behind a recent wave of anti-Semitic incidents across the country.
"It sounds like you were suggesting that the Democrats were behind it," CNN's Alisyn Camerota pointed out, citing Scaramucci's Tuesday tweets about the threats.
"I'm not suggesting the Democrats were behind it. What I was really suggesting in that tweet is that we actually don't know who's behind it," Scaramucci said.

Scaramucci claimed on Wednesday that allegations have been made that "it could potentially be Trump supporters behind it or people that are affiliated with the President or his administration."
"I think that is categorically very unfair," Scaramucci said.
"But why did you make the allegation, then?" Camerota asked. "Why did you tie it to Democrats?"
