BREAKING REPORT: Trump Expected to Nominate Former Soros-Backed Candidate as Treasury Secretary

[American Girl]

Excerpt:
Reports have emerged that President-elect Trump is considering Scott Bessent, a former hedge fund manager with ties to George Soros, as his pick for Treasury Secretary. This potential nomination has ignited a debate among Trump supporters, given Bessent’s history as a key Soros Fund Management leader in the 1990s. Some supporters see the choice as a concerning departure from Trump’s commitment to taking on the establishment, while others believe Bessent’s financial expertise could serve as a tactical advantage as Trump seeks to revitalize America’s economy.




That Soros stink can't be washed off, no thanks

He worked for Soros until 2015. He held $2B of Soros’s money in his own fund until 2018.

That is disqualifying, regardless of what he has said recently.

Not a good move.  Considering that his son in law Kushner has ties to Soros this will be a disaster!  Trump has a record of not picking the best people.

Trump Taps Billionaire Hedge Fund Manager to Lead Treasury Department
streiff


President-elect Donald Trump has tapped billionaire hedge fund manager and investor Scott Bessent to serve as Secretary of the Treasury, according to multiple reports.

Bessent is billed as a crypto-currency enthusiast and an advocate of deregulation. He will also be a key figure in using America's economic power to support its diplomatic priorities.

He has advocated for his version of Japan's "three arrows" plan as a focus for economic revitalization: 3% real growth, a deficit of 3% of GDP, and "3 million more oil barrels flowing a day from U.S. energy production."

Following the trend set in other announcements this week, Bessent has been a Trump loyalist since his first term despite being an Al Gore fundraiser in 2000 and one of George Soros's inner circle.

Bessent is a known quantity on Wall Street and has Trump's trust. Those qualities, in combination, promise a swift end to the stagflation of Bidenomics.

Crypto-bozo running Treasury?

Are you shitting me?

Not sure about this guy. It seems he was involved on the trading side of the Soros empire, not the political, but I'm not particularly trusting as of late.

In a time when it is so precarious for the $USD, considering our debt load and foreign influences?  And Trump nominates a Crypto Crazed Advocate?

As a note; Vance is a major supporter of digital currencies and also owns between $250,000 to $500,000 in bitcoin, his disclosure form shows.

Again, keep in mind that Trump is not the best when it comes to picking people.

I don't get the crypto love fest. Most are fiat currencies that can be issued in unlimited amounts and therefore offer no improvement over what we got now, and the ones that do have a scarcity limiter by requiring 'mining' i.e; processing the blockchain, require so much computing power at a certain point that you're using enough electricity to power a small city.

The whole thing is a self-defeating prospect.

Ah, the old reports have it, eh? What reports from who? Yes Trump has a terrible record when it comes to picking people but it appears this time he is getting better advice and is taking it. I just really don’t want him pulling from the congress or senate to fill his administration.

And that is exactly what he's doing!

Trump picks anyone with ties to Soros, then he is in fact part of the swamp!  Soros should be deported to Hungary IMHO.  He is the greatest anarchist in history.

With the House still NOT determined, his robbing the House to fill positions in his government when we have 350 million to pick from is idiocy.  Pure idiocy.  Trump is already shooting himself in the foot.  Da!!!!!!!

Deported to Hungary? They don’t want the Bastard! I say send him to Germany or to Argentina, that’s where so many of his Nazi buddies went.
