      Unconfirmed at this moment in time, but the "Rumor" is that Puzder will not be the next Labor Secretary.

      Multiple sources are reporting the same.

      Edit: He withdrew officially.

          Sadly, he won't be filling positions that need to be filled badly anytime soon.  😞
          He's too tired so he's flying to Mar-A_Lago to play golf with foreign guests and get some rest over the weekend while watching SNL.

          Tell someone you love them today, because life is short.
          But shout it at them in German, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

            This is disgusting. Seriously, how many weekend vacations will he be taking? President Obama's first trip was in like March or April of 2009 (still too soon to be vacationing that early in presidency). Granted, we were in the midst of a horrible financial crisis and #45 isn't, but jeez you'd think he'd be working on…you know...economic opportunities for those 77,000 voters spread across Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. He owes those 77,000 people "bigly."

              He's starting his 2020 reelection campaign on Saturday.

                Like most of the inherited wealthy, he is tired from having to actually work.  This was an issue for his labor secretary choice when he was considering joining the cabinet.  The truly wealthy (the 1%) don't know what work is other than a game of competitive tennis and tire easily (LOL).

                  Oh, come on now, be fair… There's 1%'ers who started out in their garage... Most American Billionaires are self made... https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/269593

                  Also, the ability to "Go Play Tennis" is an important concept in big business called "Sustainability." If you own a company and you employee 10,000 people, you run the show and there's no board/upper management level, and you unfortunately die. Now what? 10,000 people lose their jobs? It's critically important that the ownership and leadership are not the weakest links… Also, for many people who do end up getting wealthy, at some point in their journey, they've made their dreams reality, what are they suppose to do? Fire everybody and call it a day? So they built a company, they can't go play golf when they want to?...
