remnick: [Laughs.] How did you react to the Mooch’s rant to Ryan Lizza in The New Yorker?
franken: Well, I love that this is the head of the White House communications operation, and he didn’t know that you say, “This is off the record, O.K., do we agree on that,” before you say things.
remnick: I’m made to understand you had to explain to part of your Democratic caucus some of the terminology of the Scaramucci rant.

remnick: That’s an awe-inspiring vision of the Senate.
franken: We were meeting for our caucus meeting, and the Mooch had just come out, when he talked to one of your terrific New Yorker reporters. And they had some questions. [Laughs.]
remnick: [Laughs.]
franken: Three, four of my women colleagues.
