President Trump’s nominee to lead the Department of Veterans Affairs, Ronny Jackson, has now served as a physician under three presidents and carries a peculiar nickname from former President George W. Bush: “Scrote.”
The Washington Post reports that Bush awarded Jackson the nickname after the physician cut himself in the leg with a hoe at the former president’s ranch in Texas. As Jackson began to stitch up his own leg, Bush protested, but Jackson resisted assistance.
