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

Musk thrust his shoulder into Bessentโ€™s rib cage โ€œlike a rugby player,โ€ 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 worldโ€™s richest man was โ€œshuffled out of the West Wing,โ€ according to the Post.

The altercation came after an Oval Office meeting where Musk and Bessent made competing pitches to the president about who should lead the IRS. Trump opted for Bessentโ€™s choice.
