Steve Scully, the moderator of the second scheduled presidential debate that was set for October 15 in Miami. That was until the debate commission changed it from an in person to virtual town hall Thursday morning which prompted President Trump to cancel in protest of the unannounced change.
On Thursday night Steve Scully tweeted publicly a question to Trump-hater Anthony Scaramucci, asking, “Should I respond to Trump?”
Scully served as an intern to Biden years ago but still maintains a relationship with him. Scully also worked for Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA).
@Scaramucci should I respond to trump.

Scaramucci, who turned on Trump after a disastrous ten day stint at the White House in 2017, replied saying, “Ignore. He is having a hard enough time. Some more bad stuff about to go down.”

Scully has not commented further, raising the question of if he meant the tweet to be a private direct message.
