or he could go all out and persuade Mercola to take the job.

Or he could consider in his current vein of appointing people with no knowledge of or experience in an agency and appoint Sara Palin as Surgeon General.

A Surgeon General who will heal not just American bodies but America's soul as well.

Income will come from people sending in money for prayer cures and debt relief, as well as businesses sending in even more money for promoting their products.

If there's an outbreak of some sort, the Surgeon General can host a nationwide prayer circle. (but only if you have kept up with your monthly payments)

You can never be too rich or too ~~self~~ righteous (or batshit crazy) in the Trump administration.
