Musk Hit Rival ‘Like a Rugby Player’ During Infamous White House Fight

A schoolyard brawl between Elon Musk and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent contributed to Musk’s messy break-up with Donald Trump, according to a new report.

Musk thrust his shoulder into Bessent’s rib cage “like a rugby player,” The Washington Post reported, based on an interview with Trump ally Steve Bannon.

Bessent started to hit Musk back, and the fight had to be broken up by several bystanders. The world’s richest man was “shuffled out of the West Wing,” according to the Post.
