War on Iran: US decision-making being made by Trump’s council of one – Anthony Scaramucci

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Anthony Scaramucci, President Donald Trump’s former White House communications director and founder of SkyBridge Capital. He discusses whether Trump is losing in the war against Iran and what his likely strategy will be, his belief that decision-making in the Trump administration is a ‘council of one’, the Epstein Files and whether the war is a distraction from the damaging revelations, the prospect of US boots on the grounds in Iran, his goals for the war on Iran despite his opposition to the war beginning, Joe Kent’s assertion that the war is for Israel, whether it is part of an effort to save US hegemony, the consequence of de-dollarization as oil is priced in Chinese yuan, and much more.
