LOUISVILLE, Ky. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnells campaign has hired a Kentucky teenager known for his viral encounter with a Native American man at the Lincoln Memorial last year.
Nick Sandmann landed a paid position as grassroots director for McConnells reelection effort in Kentucky, the senators campaign said Friday. Sandmann started his new role this month, and McConnell campaign manager Kevin Golden said theyre excited to have him on board.
As grassroots director, Sandmann will assist in developing field operations and building coalitions.
Along with our already strong team, his efforts to bring people together all across Kentucky will be critical to Senator McConnells victory this November, Golden said in a statement.

But they'll bring him in, give him the title, and then he'll be able to get other jobs because of his "experience" as a grassroots political director for a Senate campaign.
