'What the f*ck is wrong with you?' For some reason, Anthony Scaramucci's poll on the Holocaust not well received

We have no idea what he’s thinking, but Anthony Scaramucci — or whoever runs his @ScaramucciPost Twitter account — thought it would be a good idea to poll how many Jews died in the Holocaust:

Hard to see how this offensive idea made it this far, but thankfully this costume has been removed from the market: https://t.co/pZQM6T7NmV
