Gory main points of Elon Musk’s ‘rugby take on’ of Scott Bessent spill out as White House leaks escalate

New main points surrounding a White House brawl between Elon Musk and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent have spilled out into the open – with one insider announcing the Tesla CEO rammed his shoulder into Bessent’s ribcage ‘like a rugby participant.’

The Daily Mail used to be the primary to file at the heated war of words between Bessent and Musk, who is since been iced out of Donald Trump‘s inside circle after their public blow-up this week.

Former Chief Strategist Steve Bannon published that there used to be extra to the mid-April tussle, insisting that each males ended up touchdown blows.

They misplaced their persistence with one any other following a nerve-racking assembly within the Oval Office through which Trump snubbed Musk and as an alternative took Bessent’s recommendation on whom to call as appearing IRS Commissioner, Bannon stated.

When Bessent and Musk exited the Oval Office, they started hurling insults at one any other within the hallway. But it used to be Bessent who struck Musk the place it hurts.

According to Bannon, Bessent dared to mention that the billionaire’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) used to be a failure, since Musk did not root out the $1 trillion in wasteful and fraudulent federal spending he promised he would.

‘Scott stated, “You’re a fraud. You’re a total fraud,”‘ Bannon stated. 

That’s when Musk body-checked Bessent, who hit the arena’s richest guy proper again, in step with Bannon.

Multiple folks stepped in to get a divorce the combat as the 2 males have been getting on the subject of the place of work of then-National Security Advisor Mike Waltz.

Musk used to be then escorted out of the West Wing. Bannon up to now informed the Daily Mail that Trump sided with Bessent ‘100 p.c.’

Still, Trump wasn’t specifically satisfied that the combat came about, in step with Bannon.

‘President Trump heard about it and stated, “This is too much,”’ Bannon said.

Details about the Bessent-Musk clash only build upon speculation that Trump has long been drifting away from his former ‘first buddy,’ who donated $288 million to his 2024 campaign.

They also reinforce the fact that leakers inside the White House are laser-focused on Musk. 

Sources on the subject of the billionaire blew the whistle on his deficient courting with Susie Wiles, Trump’s no-nonsense leader of body of workers.

He treated Wiles like a ‘secretary,’ a source told the Daily Mail in April, despite her proven track record of success leading Trump’s winning 2024 campaign.

In March, it was reported that Musk blew up at Secretary of State Marco Rubio in a cabinet meeting for not cutting enough employees 

And in early March, there used to be wide-scale reporting on an Oval Office blowup between Musk and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

This was in the early days of the DOGE-inspired layoffs, and according to The New York Times, Musk berated Rubio for not firing anyone at the State Department.

Rubio reportedly asked whether the 1,500 State Department officials who took early retirement buyouts counted as layoffs. Then he ‘sarcastically’ questioned if Musk wanted him to rehire them so he could fire them again, The Times reported.

Most lately, Musk’s alleged drug use used to be laid naked by way of insiders who spoke to The New York Times. 

Musk was reportedly taking ketamine so frequently that it was affecting his bladder function.

The bombshell report also claimed he took ecstasy, psychedelic mushrooms and traveled with a daily pill box that contained about 20 different drugs, including Adderall.

While all these disagreements played out behind the scenes, things between Musk and Trump seemed copacetic.

In March, when Tesla stock was tanking and people began fire-bombing the electric vehicles all over the country, Trump brought Tesla to the South Lawn of the White House.

Through all the turbulence, it did appear that things between Trump and Musk were on good terms (Pictured: The two men stand in front of a Tesla on the White House South Lawn on March 11)

As recently as May 30, Trump was repeatedly praising Musk for his DOGE efforts during a press conference in the Oval Office, even presenting him a golden key to the White House

On Thursday, Trump threatened to cut off billions in government contracts to Musk’s companies. He doubled down on Friday aboard Air Force One (pictured)

One of the harshest barbs in the Trump-Musk feud came when Musk accused the president of being in the Epstein files

As recently as May 30, Trump was praising Musk for his DOGE efforts during a press conference in the Oval Office, even presenting him a golden key to the White House.

The era of good feelings would only last a few days more. 

On Tuesday afternoon, he posted on X about his unflinching hate for the ‘Big Beautiful Bill,’ Trump’s landmark budget and tax cut bill.

‘I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination,’ Musk wrote. ‘Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.’

In response, Trump said he was ‘very surprised’ and ‘very disappointed’ about Musk’s unabashed criticism.

On Thursday, Trump threatened to bring to an end federal loans and subsidies to Musk’s firms, that have gained some $38 billion in govt cash during the last 20 years.

Trump doubled down on this idea Friday, telling reporters aboard Air Force One: ”I would certainly think about it, but it has to be fair.’

He also told reporters that he wished the billionaire ‘well,’ to which Musk replied in a post on X saying: ‘Likewise.’

Musk then responded to the clip of Trump talking about canceling his grants, saying: ‘Fair enough.’

Musk has sought to soften his tone, recently deleting his post on X saying that Trump was in the Epstein files.

On Saturday, Trump did a phone interview with NBC’s Kristen Welker and said he had no desire to mend his relationship with Musk. He also said he didn’t plan to speak with Musk anytime soon.

‘I’m too busy doing different issues,’ Trump stated. ‘I don’t have any aim of chatting with him.’
