This Trump Official Is Really Pissing Off GOP Lawmakers [View all]

Federal Housing Finance Agency director Bill Pulte is becoming an increasingly significant character in the MAGA-verse, and it’s pissing everyone off.

Politico has reported that GOPers on Capitol Hill are privately fuming that Pulte has punched so far above his weight. The Trump official has managed to achieve inner-circle status as FHFA director, which is usually a more background role.

That contempt only grew stronger after Pulte’s dust-up with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent at a MAGA influencer’s upscale birthday dinner in Washington, D.C., in which the secretary told Pulte he would punch him in his “fucking face” for apparently criticizing him to Trump behind his back. It seems safe to say that many GOP members take after Bessent, and find Pulte irritating at best.

“I think he’s a nut,” one House Republican told Politico, referring to Pulte.
