“Let’s say there are only 25 million people that own crypto in the United States. But let’s say 5% of them are single-issue voters [...] If they’re in the swing states of the United States, she will lose the election,” Scaramucci told Cointelegraph in an exclusive interview.


A former White House Communications Director in the Trump administration, Scaramucci acknowledges that the Democrats’ stance toward the crypto industry has been a “disaster.” Still, while most of the crypto community seems to have taken the stance of Trump because of his pro-crypto campaign, Scaramucci thinks he is not a good candidate for crypto.


“He’s the most transactional son of a bitch that you’ll ever meet. Today, he’s for crypto; tomorrow, he may or may not be for crypto,” Scaramucci said.


According to Scaramucci, Trump aims to create an “oligarchic situation” that will weaken the US capital market and its standing in the world.


However, he recognizes that Trump still remains the most attractive candidate for pro-crypto, single-issue voters.
