    I’m genuinely shocked by this. But only because I didn’t think Bessent had the spine or the personality depth to get into a heated argument with anyone. The guy comes across like a timid sloth on Valium, and has all the personality of a wet sock.

      I think working with the Trump administration would be enough to set anyone off.
