Trump Goon's Secret Side Job Reveal Backfires Spectacularly

Transportation head Sean Duffy has sparked a huge backlash for filming a seven-month, government-funded family “road trip” while serving as a Trump Cabinet member.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, who has gone from being a former reality TV star to a Trump Cabinet goon, has found a way to combine both realities, but not without sparking a massive backlash.

The transportation head and former Real World star has been road-tripping around the country with his wife, Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy, and two of their nine children for The Great American Road Trip.

The show is a Department of Transportation initiative, in partnership with the Great American Road Trip organization, established to celebrate the country’s 250th anniversary, and will premiere in June on its own website.

But the timing of the reality TV program, filmed over seven months, and while many Americans are weighing the cost of using their cars at all as gas prices spike due to President Donald Trump’s war in Iran, has caused some to label the 54-year-old as being “out of touch.”

Former transportation head Pete Buttigieg slammed Duffy on Friday, writing on X, “I love a good road trip, but this is brutally out of touch: a Trump Cabinet member making a documentary about himself while regular families can’t afford road trips anymore, because Trump and his war put gas prices through the roof.”

1. Wasn't there some transportation crisis where it took quite a while for Secretary Road Rules

to finally appear in public? I don’t remember which one at this point. Maybe they had to interrupt his vacation documentary filming.
