No, not press secretary, but since he is a greedy fucking pharmaceutical guy, he will put him over the Federal Drug Administration. Then in a year or so when they develop with a COVID-19 vaccine, it will cost $20,000 per dose.
 
By his own admission he has no useful skills to help at all, he is an “entrepreneur”, "attention whore" and an “executive” . I'm pretty sure the only thing he could develop in three months is herpatic lesions.

You might as well have NASA’s former top janitor insist he needs to be let out of prison to help successfully put a colony on Mars.

That happens all the time. Prince's estate has tons of unreleased material

Did you see the great episode about Prince 60 Minutes had a few months back? He had a special walk-in vault built into the basement of his studio to hold his archives. Somewhere along the years Prince forgot the combination. They showed a picture taken as part of Prince's estate process and the hallway outside the vault was filled with boxes and boxes of stuff. Apparently the vault was also pretty full.

I can understand that with Prince due to his untimely death, but isn’t the Wu Tang Clan still performing?

I don't think a lot of them are getting along all that well at the moment. They broke up but still tour sometimes. I do know $2 million for the only copy of an album that a popular group with like 8 members spent 6 years working on is a fucking steal.

Ah I didn't know, I knew they weren't really active. Yeah, I don't get that, it sounds like a super cheap deal!

I wonder what some of these bands charge for those performances they do for rich people.

How the fuck hasn't this money been taken back already? Like on day one of his sentence?

Because the money is unrelated to his criminal sentence. He was sentenced to prison for securities fraud relating to two hedge funds he ran prior to his involvement with pharmaceuticals. The money they are now having him pay is related to a civil anti-trust action against his pharma company.

Thanks. I was honestly curious and this makes sense.
