A state senator in Tennessee urinated on himself while taking a field sobriety test, according to reports and video from the incident. Sen. Ken Yager, a 77-year-old Republican representing a district in the north of his state, was pulled over by a Georgia State trooper around 5 p.m. on Tuesday on suspicion his vehicle was involved in a hit-and-run the same day.

Breaking: Trump is considering Sen Ken Yager for a position in his cabinet.

White House Chauffeur if we're going with the overall theme of the other appointees.

In charge of NHTSA maybe? He's vaguely familiar with putting yellow lines on roads.

The previous president provided this pee-pant politician a position in his party?

How plausibly possible.

Didn't the republicans have a Pee Party movement at some moment in history?

With Trump it is all about that "alpha male" image. He would never associate with anyone that pissed their pants.
