I’d like to think this is an indicator they know they’re not ushering in a forever POTUS and that they need out before they’re forever tied to trump’s legacy.

His office window will do nicely.

blkhks07.bsky.social•2 days ago

Wow, someone MIGHT have some intelligence in the current Administration.

Might.

bcrew1375.bsky.social•1 day ago

Nope. If he did, he never would've signed on. How the hell could anyone with half a brain?

tuckfriendly.bsky.social•1 day ago

This is a poorly disguised Donald Rumsfeld, who always wanted to lean the American military. He finally did it by shrinking the entire US economy.

jocelyn-suzanne.bsky.social•2 days ago

🤭 A little too late to bail out on this sinking ship, isn't he. He's already in the history books as part of this American disaster.

elliottness47.bsky.social•1 day ago

if he gets out now no one will remember he was ever there.

felinablanc.bsky.social•1 day ago

Somebody should tattoo the Dow crash graph on his forehead.

brendanamartin.bsky.social•1 day ago

I hope it’s a vertical exit door.

existentialtreat.bsky.social•1 day ago

yadda yadda *rats*, yadda yadda *sinking ship*

senorsabelotodo.bsky.social•2 days ago

Hopefully that exit door leads to prison.

mateohh.bsky.social•2 days ago

tired of not knowing wtf is going on like the rest of us

jkswonder.bsky.social•1 day ago

I guess he’s ready to write his book now.

shubydooin.bsky.social•1 day ago

Then fucking resign.

thepissedoldlady.bsky.social•1 day ago

He's going to find out that nothing will wash this stink off. Ever. He should be mocked and shamed the rest of his miserable life.

buddyspell.bsky.social•2 days ago

That won't save him when we get to the end of this. We're keeping lists. He's on them.

ginny1956.bsky.social•1 day ago

Good cause he’s a dumb shit.

valennb4.bsky.social•2 days ago

He can leave, but he will never be clean.

Hatch! Not door! 🧌

socialgreedia.bsky.social•2 days ago

I'm hardly surprised. He actually seems somewhat sane, and I think he's tiring of having to give interviews where he's forced to explain policies that Trump comes up with while taking a crap of Big Macs and fries.

hosea6.bsky.social•2 days ago

There very well could be a lot more to follow

commonends.bsky.social•1 day ago

This website is unreadable on mobile. Non-stop pop up ads and slop. What garbage.

blandphilosophy.bsky.social•1 day ago

The man was about to fucking cry on national TV, I get it.

skidvicious.bsky.social•1 day ago

how about a window

alexrrr.bsky.social•1 day ago

HAHAHAHHAHA LMAO

johnnynovio.bsky.social•1 day ago

Another thin skinned billionaire that can't handle Trump's lying and irrational behaviors.

jerrijamz.bsky.social•1 day ago

I just hope it BLASTS him in the ASS on the way out.

indnial.bsky.social•1 day ago

Too fucking late, asshole.

splogal.bsky.social•2 days ago

Reading between the story lines.....
Bessent - This place is a toxic hellhole presided over by a #SlowAdult.
He is much dumber than we expected.
Need to eject before my retirement is vaporized.

bcrew1375.bsky.social•1 day ago

If he's dumber than you expected, you're probably not too smart yourself. You had 8 YEARS of him being center stage to figure it out.

fireduphydro.bsky.social•1 day ago

Hopefully the first domino to fall in this regime. May there be many more

chaostosurreal.bsky.social•2 days ago

Trump 1 was a revolving door too

delightw2023.bsky.social•1 day ago

He gave DOGE the keys to the Treasury Department.

terifaarr.bsky.social•1 day ago

Too late, Trump just put a 50% tariff on the door. Maybe he'll negotiate with you.

onclejef.bsky.social•1 day ago

It like those assholes who after firing the last round in their machine gun belt at your buddies throws his hands in the air yelling ''I surrender, I surrender!''

You get shot in the face is what.

bigbadbibear.bsky.social•1 day ago

But I thought he was a titan of industry whose business acumen was gonna whip the no good government into shape??????????

belcaro.bsky.social•1 day ago

How could Bessent not know what he signed up for? A crazy town clown show run by a pathological narcissist. What did he expect would happen?

bcrew1375.bsky.social•1 day ago

This is the dick that let Musk and his DOGE bags have full access to Treasury systems. He was on board with that, but NOW he wants off?

walkerwest.bsky.social•2 days ago

Aren’t we all…

capitalistfool.bsky.social•1 day ago

On the bright side, he can omit these two months from his résumé because everyone will have a few months missing soon and he'll get a head start.

terrifiedstill2024.bsky.social•2 days ago

Fuck you bessent you revolting creepy scumbag. You made your bed

dreadedbouncer.bsky.social•1 day ago

Like my Neema always said "like rats off a sinking ship!"
#GOPBetrayedAmerica #GOPHypocrisy and #GOPLiesAboutEverything

dmansini.bsky.social•1 day ago

He’s a damn traitor

codykinski.bsky.social•1 day ago

Oh yeah? Well maybe there isn't an exit door. Maybe there isn't an exit door because Trump abolished all the building codes and DOGE decided not to put IN any exit doors. To save money, you know. Poor old Bess. Best of luck in future endeavors.

mededcarol.bsky.social•2 days ago

He could walk out any exit and share his concerns. He has enough money to live on. No integrity apparently.

chunch.bsky.social•1 day ago

eliza-aa.bsky.social•2 days ago

He was definitely in the betting pool of one of those to be the first to jump ship.

sanho.bsky.social•1 day ago

Scott Bessent will soon join the Rex Tillerson club. They always have to learn to hard way.🙄

billstewart.bsky.social•1 day ago

But Tillerson was aggressively trashing the State Department infrastructure and employee base when he was running it,
while AFAIK Bessent hasn't been doing the same kind of destruction (whether or not DOGEs and DEI-trashing have been doing it to branches of Treasury.)

bellathelab.bsky.social•2 days ago

Who would want to be associated with this catastrophe?

elliottness47.bsky.social•1 day ago

I'm sure this poor fucker suggested any number of fairly reasonable and sane ideas and then someone walked in with a chart they pulled off ChatGPT and he's thinking about 4 years of this.

alternateone.bsky.social•1 day ago

He can take the window or the stairs.

fryer476.bsky.social•1 day ago

Sell your soul….may the stain be permanent!

patskipper.bsky.social•1 day ago

Dear Trump, I resign. it's not all that hard, is it?

lpdoak.bsky.social•2 days ago

Wait wut?

The guy that wanted everyone to invest in face eating leopard futures is worried about the leopards eating his face?

craigerflights.bsky.social•2 days ago

Trap door right under his feet. Careful, it’s a long drop.

cabbageridge.bsky.social•2 days ago

It took him two months?

starm600.bsky.social•1 day ago

There was a news conference on Thursday to inform the American people that Obamas
birth certificate is fraudent.
My question is should president Trump deport him or should he put in jail with the big guys
