This year, there were two unusual events in the White House: a Republican who was openly queer and a Republican who was in charge of the US Treasury Department who also attacked Elon Musk, the richest person. Additionally, Scott Bessent and Musk’s fight finally led to the latter’s messy divorce from Donald Trump. Following a controversial Oval Office conference, where did the two people fight with Trump over who should be in charge of the IRS? Following the meeting, Bessent referred to Musk as a” full scam,” claiming that he had lied about delivering on his spending promises. According to the report from MAGA campaigner Steve Bannon, Musk reportedly delivered a violent make strike to Bessent’s chest “like a rugby player” in response, causing a short brawl that bystanders had to end in. Trump reportedly said it was” too much” when he learned of the incident. Musk was escorted out of the West Wing at the conclusion of the argument.
Scott Bessent, who is he?
Scott Bessent is the first Cabinet official to have been confirmed by the Senate and the first openly gay part of a Republican management. Before entering the workforce, he worked for Brown Brothers Harriman, the Olayan Group, and Kynikos Associates before establishing a distinguished career in finance. He has long been a tireless follower, coach, and advocate for financial education and education initiatives. He has endorsed important columns of Trump’s financial agenda, including taxes, tax breaks, and firm restructuring. Bessent has faced some suspicion from conservatives since announcing his election on November 22. Elon Musk, the billionaire tapped to co-lead the previously established Department of Government Performance, was critical of him when Trump initially considered him for the position. According to Musk,” Bessent is a business-as-usual choice,” and that “business-as-usual” is what causes America to go bankrupt, so we need change in some way.”
