The two-year-old remarks were brought up by a reporterat the White House press briefing Friday.

Scaramucci, signaling all has been forgiven, joked that Trump, a fellow New Yorker, brings it up every 15 seconds.

I never should have said that about him, Scaramucci said, calling it one of the biggest mistakes I made, because I was an inexperienced person in politics and was supporting another candidate.

I love the president, and Im very, very loyal to the president, and I love the mission the president has, he said.

In the 2015 Fox Business segment,Scaramucci, who served as senior vice president and chief strategy officer at the U.S. Export-Import Bank, was reacting to audio of Trump criticizing hedge fund managers.

The Wall Street entrepreneur said that if Trump is going to be president, it will be of the Queens County Bullies Association.

Addressing Trump directly, he said, Youve got to cut it out now and stop all this crazy rhetoric.

I dont like the way he talks about women, I dont like the way he talks about our friend Megyn Kelly, Scaramucci said. And, do you know what? The politicians dont want to go at Trump because hes got a big mouth and theyre afraid hes going to light it up on Fox News and all these other places.

But, Im not a politician. Bring it. Youre an inherited money dude from Queens County. Bring it, Donald.

Scaramucci said he believed Trumps record would doom his candidacy, causing him to implode by the fall of 2015.
