These People Deserve Each Other
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent got into a heated confrontation with Federal Housing Finance Agency chief Bill Pulte last week at the Executive Branch, the MAGA-chic private club in D.C., Politico reports.
Bessent accused Pulte, the MAGA influencer ginning up mortgage fraud claims against Trump foes, of bad-mouthing him to Trump, leading to this diatribe from the sitting Treasury secretary: “Why the fuck are you talking to the president about me? Fuck you. I’m gonna punch you in your fucking face.”
Co-owner Omeed Malik attempted to intervene in the confrontation, prompting this memorable exchange:
“It’s either me or him,” Bessent said to Malik. “You tell me who’s getting the fuck out of here.”
“Or,” he added, “we could go outside.”
“To do what?” asked Pulte. “To talk?”
“No,” Bessent replied. “I’m going to fucking beat your ass.”
Even Trump-world insiders described the scene to Politico as “bonkers” and “unhinged.”
No need to mention this is conduct wholly unbecoming to a person of his stature.
One day the Orange Jackass will die and his Coalition Of Sycophancy will devour each other alive, and I will laugh.
Hopefully he will finally die of a stroke or heart attack very soon.
A slow, painful cancer would be much nicer.
I’d rather him have a hollywood style chest clutching collapse and dead before they hit the ground heart attack immediately type of shit.
