Anthony Scaramucci

No, I said that for a reason.

I mean, it was not just a shock value.

I just think that we've lost our way.

When you and I were growing up and you started in journalism or even when we were in college, even if we had people mudslinging at politicians, which they've done for 5,000 years, there was some level of respect

and decorum.

But the president has stripped all of that out of the United States now to the point where he's getting shot at and we're not even really responding to it anymore.

The stuff that he puts out on the social media, we're numb to ending civilizations, open the effing straight.

And so, you know, I think the raccoon fits into all of that in terms of the insanity of it.

And, you know, whoever came up with the word sane washing to me, you know, needs an award in the Oxford Dictionary because we're doing too much sane washing of all this stuff.

But I did also do it for your reaction, Kat.

I just want you to make sure you know that as well.

Welcome back to The Rest Is Politics U.S.

with me, Anthony Scaramucci, and Katty Kay.

How many times have you met the king, Kat?

You never met him when he was Prince Charles as well?

Okay.

Well, I want to hear all about it.

Photos will be forthcoming.

Good.

I want to hear all about it.
