Donald Trump is more concerned about making money than taking care of his presidential legacy, former campaign staffer Anthony Scaramucci has said.

Mr Scaramucci, ex-White House communications director, said the president would use his final days in office to think about how he can benefit financially from his enhanced profile.

A life-long Republican, the New York-based hedge fund boss came out in support of president-elect Joe Biden during the election campaign and repeatedly criticised his old boss.

Speaking to CNN on Wednesday, he said Mr Trump "does not care about his legacy".

He added: "So the president wants to transact. He wants to make money. He has told people privately, ‘Why do I care about my legacy? I’ll be dead.’"
