Lawrence: Scaramucci ‘Stupidest Person Ever’ To Work In WH Comms | The Beat With Ari Melber

WEST WIN AND A FRIEND OF MINE. YOUR VIEWS.
>> IT'S 6:28 IN THE EAST COAST AND IT'S STILL FAMILY HOUR TV.
FOR THE DIRTY BITS OF SCARAMUCCI, 10:00 P.M., MSNBC.
WE'VE GOT A CALL OUT TO JOE PESI TO COME IN AND READ THE
SCARAMUCCI PART. DON'T KNOW IF HE'S AVAILABLE BUT
WE'LL SEND A CAR ANYWHERE, JOE. IT'S THE MOST STUNNING STUFF
EVER SPOKEN BY ANYONE WHO HAS EVER WORKED IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
THAT'S IN THE HISTORY OF THE BUILDING.
>> IN PUBLIC? >> AT ANY TIME.
THERE'S NO RECORD IN OUR HISTORY THAT ANYBODY WHISPERED THINGS
LIKE THIS BACKSTAGE AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
EVER. THIS GUY WHO I DECLARED
YESTERDAY TO BE OFFICIALLY THE STUPIDEST PERSON EVER TO WORK IN
THE COMMUNICATIONS OF THE WHITE HOUSE HAS NOW GONE SO FAR BEYOND
THAT DESCRIPTION THAT YOU COULD NEVER HAVE IMAGINED IT.
YOU READ THE PARTS THAT HAVE A CERTAIN KIND OF LOGIC TO THEM.
THE SEX ACT THAT HE ACCUSES STEVE BANNON OF DOING BY HIMSELF
IS SOMETHING THAT I'M NOT SURE WHAT PARTS OF THAT WE'LL GET TO
AT 10:00, BUT WE'LL TRY. BECAUSE THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES HAS DECIDED HE NEEDED TO BRING THIS GUY IN TO
UPGRADE HIS STAFF. HE'S BROUGHT IN SOMEONE WHO IS
STARK RAVING MAD, WHO MADE A PHONE CALL TO A NEW YORKER
REPORTER TO LEAK TO HIM AND TRY TO GET THE REPORTER TO LEAK TO
HIM WHO HIS SOURCE WAS ON AN EARLIER ITEM AND THE WHOLE TIME
HE WAS ON THE RECORD AND HE APPARENTLY DID NOT KNOW THAT.
THIS GUY IS STUNNINGLY INCOMPETENT AND UNPROFESSIONAL
AND HE'S NOT YET AN EMPLOYEE OF THE WHITE HOUSE.
THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT POINT.
HE'S A VISITOR. HE DOESN'T WORK THERE.
>> DOES THIS MATTER BECAUSE IT'S
DISTASTEFUL AND VULGAR. YOU USED THE WORD STUPID OR
BECAUSE IT WILL AFFECT PEOPLE'S LIVES.
>> THIS IS THE JUDGMENT OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
EVERY SINGLE WORD THAT THIS GUY SAID TO THE NEW YORKER MATTERS
HUGELY BECAUSE IT'S THE JUDGMENT OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES WHO KNOWS THIS MAN WELL, WHO KNOWS THIS IS THE WAY HE
THINKS AND TALKS, THAT HE WANTS HIM IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
THIS IS THE PERSON HE WANTS THIS CHARGE OF HIS COMMUNICATIONS.
IN CHARGE OF SPEAKING FOR HIM. WHAT'S CLEAR ABOUT THIS IS HE
SPEAKS BETTER FOR DONALD TRUMP THAN ANYONE WHO HAS SPOKEN TO
HIM. >> I HAVE A NEW RESPONSE.
I WANT TO REVISIT THE RESPONSE. >> HE'S LIKE DONALD TRUMP'S
LITTLE BROTHER. HE'S EVERY BIT AS DERANGED AS
DONALD TRUMP. >> WE HAVE A BRAND NEW RESPONSE.
IT IS BREAKING STORY. SCARAMUCCI KNEW TWEETING I
SOMETIMES USE COLORFUL LANGUAGE. I WILL REFRAIN IN THIS ARENA BUT
NOT GIVE UP MY PASSIONATE FIGHT FOR REAL DONALD TRUMP'S AGENDA.
HASHTAG MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.
IS THAT ENOUGH IN YOUR VIEW? >> THERE'S A BIG QUESTION AS TO
WHETHER HE WILL BE EMPLOYED BY THE WHITE HOUSE.
THE CLOSING OF THE SALE OF HIS COMPANY CANNOT HAPPEN BEFORE
AUGUST 15th. HE CANNOT GO ONTO THAT PAYROLL
BEFORE AUGUST 15th. HE'S DONE ENOUGH.
THERE'S NOWHERE ELSE IN GOVERNMENT, NO CITY HALL,
THERE'S NO TOWN HALL IN AMERICA WHERE THIS PERSON WOULD BE
EMPLOYED AFTER ANY OF THESE WORDS BECAME PUBLIC TODAY.
THERE'S ONE PLACE IN AMERICAN GOVERNMENT WHERE HE MIGHT BE
ALLOWED TO WORK AFTER WHAT HE PUBLICLY SAID TODAY AND THAT IS
DONALD TRUMP'S WHITE HOUSE. THAT'S THE ONLY PLACE, BUT THE
NEXT TIME DONALD TRUMP TRIES TO GO IN FRONT OF AN AUDIENCE AND

REPUBLICAN AND NEW REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT AND THEN
PRESIDENT. YOU CAN SEE HOW BREATHTAKINGLY
PHONY THAT IS BECAUSE THIS IS REAL TRUMPISM.
THIS IS THE REAL THING. >> FINAL POLITICS QUESTION.
TECHNICALLY HE SAYS HE'S AN EMPLOYEE NOW.
>> HE'S NOT ON THE PAYROLL. HE GOES IN THERE WITH A
VISITOR'S PASS EVERY DAY. HE'S NOT ON THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT PAYROLL. HE MAY NEVER BE ON THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT PAYROLL. >> LAST QUESTION ON POLITICS.
I GET ATTACKING REINCE. WHY ATTACK BANNON?
>> WHY DO YOU GET ATTACKING REINCE?
THERE'S NOTHING TO GET IN HERE. THIS GUY BELIEVES THAT REINCE
PRIEBUS LEAKED THAT HE WAS HAVING DIN IN THE WHITE HOUSE
WITH THE PRESIDENT AND SEAN HANNITY LAST NIGHT AND THAT'S
WHAT HIS OUTRAGE WAS ABOUT. THIS IS THE GUY WHO BELIEVES
THAT REINCE PRIEBUS LEAKED THAT, ENDANGERED THE NATION BY LEAKING
THAT. THERE'S NOTHING TO GET HERE.
THIS IS GRAVELY DISTURBED HUMAN BEING WHO SHOULD NEVER BE
ALLOWED THROUGH THE GATES OF THE WHITE HOUSE NEVER UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES. >> LAWRENCE O'DONNEL DO I TEASE
JOE PESCI OR IS THAT WAIT AND SEE?
>> JOE, PLEASE. WE'RE BEGGING.
READ THE NEW YORKER. ALL OF THOSE LINES, 10:00 P.M.
YOU CAN PHONE IT IN. NO MAKEUP.
STAY AT HOME ON YOUR SOFA. WE'LL SEND YOU THE LINES.
>> LIVE REPORTING, LIVE ANALYSIS AND LIVE BOOKING REQUEST.
ALWAYS AN HONOR.
