Not sure, but word is he's sometimes called upon to blow into the breathalyzer when Pete's feeling a bit off his mark.

Nepotism is a big hit amongst republicans.

This is the administration that wants people to be hired based on MERIT.

He needs someone to go to the liquor store for him.

The most repulsive form of corruption is when the powerful line up their friends and relatives in cinderella jobs. they do it all the time, openly and in-your-face.

He's probably also suppling the urine samples.

So the supremely unqualified white supremacist DUI hire makes himself an actual DEI hire, a less than mediocre white guy with zero experience and completely unqualified for the job, but he fired the highly qualified 4-star Chairman of the Joint Chiefs because he was black. That's the Drumpf regime in a nutshell.
