Welcome to Intelligence Squared, where great minds meet. I'm senior producer Margrieta Valpato. Today's episode is the full recording of our recent event with former White House communications director, outspoken Trump critic, and co-host of The Rest is Politics US, Anthony Scaramucci. In conversation with Guardian columnist and co-host of the Rest is Entertainment podcast, Marina Hyde, Scaramucci provided an insider's account of how America reached Trumpism and where it goes next.

Drawing on his new book, All the Wrong Moves, Anthony and Marina explored how decades of mistakes by both Republicans and Democrats paved the way for Trump's rise and explained how America could chart a different course. Let's join Marina Hyde now, live on stage at G Live in Guildford. Now, Anthony exploded into our consciousness in July 2017 when he began an incredible career in public service for the United States federal government. A long, an enduring career, a long-lasting career. Seven days later it was over.

Still, what a run. Tonight we're going to be talking about that, his amazing new book, All the Wrong Moves, which you now all own, his career as a high financier and mega hit podcaster, and, of course, his skincare regime. Now, as I say, today he's the host of The Restless Politics US, an open book with Anthony Scaramucci. He's founder and managing partner of his own investment firm, Skybridge Capital, and this book is asks, which you all have on your seat, it asks how decades of disastrous decisions by both parties created the anger and disillusionment that brought Donald Trump to power.
