A CNN panel of so-called “Never Trump” Republicans degenerated into what seemed more like a teen drama reality show with Don Lemon playing the part of the instigating host than one of the top 3 news stations in the United States.<\/p>\n

Things got heated when Ana Navarro laid into Anthony Scaramucci for pointing out that millions of Americans are displeased with “identity politics,” Amanda Carpenter jumped in and mocked Scaramucci’s temporary occupation as President Trump’s White House communications director, while Scaramucci called out Carpenter for working for Senator Ted Cruz who he referred to as a “full-on traitor.”<\/p>\n

Scaramucci pointed out that over 74 million Americans voted for Trump, a fact he said was a flaw in the “system.”<\/p>\n

“It’s identity politics and it’s economics,” he said.<\/p>\n

This caused Navarro to go on a rage-fueled rant.<\/p>\n

“Anthony, I’ve got to tell you, there is no phrase I hate more than identity politics,” Navarro snapped back. “When Republicans talk about identity politics, they’re talking about people like me and people like Don. They’re talking about our gender. They’re talking about sexuality. They’re talking about our skin color and our ethnicity.”<\/p>\n
