During the George W. Bush administration, Elaine Chao was Secretary of Labor. At one point during her tenure, she was testifying in a Senate hearing and asked the following question:
"What is the current minimum wage?"
This was her answer: "I don't know, 7 something."
She was Secretary of Labor and did not know the f***ing minimum wage.
Chao and McConnell are corrupt poseurs.
