INTERVIEW: Former Trump adviser tells SBS he's backing Kamala Harris

Donald Trump’s former communications adviser Anthony Scaramucci is backing US Vice President Kamala Harris to win November’s presidential election. However, he’s warned that Republican contender Donald Trump is a dangerous man and there will be problems for the world if the former president wins. Mr Scaramucci briefly worked for Mr Trump before being sacked in 2017. The US investor runs hedge fund SkyBridge Capital and he was in Australia this week to attend the Association of Superannuation Funds investment summit. He says the US central bank has waited too long to cut official interest rates and that’s put the US economy at risk of a recession. But Mr Scaramucci told reporter Sue Lannin that he expects three US rate cuts this year.
