Trump appointee said 'competent white men' must be in charge for 'things to work'
Darren Beattie, a former Trump speechwriter, will be joining the U.S. State Department.


Snopes excerpt:
Beattie did indeed make the above post in October 2024, as we found on his verified X profile. As such, we rate this a correct attribution.

On Oct. 4, 2024, Beattie wrote (archived) on X:

Competent white men must be in charge if you want things to work.

Unfortunately, our entire national ideology is predicated on coddling the feelings of women and minorities, and demoralizing competent white men.


What a little, little man. Women and minorities run circles around assholes like this freak.
