President Donald Trump's has a "full-on misogynist" view of the MAGA women in his orbit, according to one former official, who further described his "weird" and "transactional" approach to them.

Anthony Scaramucci briefly served as communications director in Trump's first term, infamously lasting only 11 days in the role. Since then, he has emerged as a vocal critic of his former boss, denouncing his various political maneuvers and offering endorsements for his adversaries. In the latest episode of The Daily Beast Podcast, he appeared as a guest and offered insights into how Trump views the women in his administration.

"The woman that Trump is going for is going to be subservient and like everybody else, is going to be more or less a lackey of his," Scaramucci said. "And remember, people are transactions to Donald Trump—they’re not people,”

Scaramucci added that Trump would not view the podcast's co-hosts, Joanna Coles and author Nell Scovell, as "three-dimensional human beings."

"He would look at you as transactions in his field of vision," he said. "And if you were saying something nice about him, he would be flattering to you. And if you were saying something bad about him, he would put you in an AI rendition of a Bud Light commercial... You know, it's very black and white with him."

Scaramucci's comments came amid renewed reporting on the treatment of the women in Trump's administration, following the resignation of White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. Numerous anonymous MAGA women close to the president confirmed to the Daily Mail this week that the demands he makes of their appearances and behavior can grow "exhausting."

"You have to be exceptional at your job, which is a given, but if you’re a woman you have to look a certain way, dress a certain way and be available 24/7, because this is a President who barely sleeps," one source told the outlet.

Some said that they did not blame Leavitt for getting out of the White House, given the constant demands she dealt with, including the need to be available for phone calls 24/7, even during her maternity leave.

"He’s a full-on misogynist, no question about that," Scaramucci added. "I look at him, and I say, this guy is weird about sex. He’s weird about women. Who the hell knows what he did with Jeff Epstein? He's weird. Okay. I don't know what he is, but I think he's weird."
