Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-Ky.) reelection campaign confirmed that it has hired Nicholas Sandmann, the Kentucky teenager who garnered national attention for his viral encounter with a Native American elder in a crowd last year at the Lincoln Memorial.

The campaign confirmed to The Hill on Saturday that Sandmann will work as a grassroots director for McConnell’s reelection bid and that he started in the new role this month. His job will entail assisting in field operations and building coalitions.

“We’re excited to have Nicholas on Team Mitch. Along with our already strong team, his efforts to bring people together all across Kentucky will be critical to Senator McConnell’s victory this November,” said campaign manager Kevin Golden.

Sandmann, who will remain a student at Transylvania University as he works for the McConnell campaign, first appeared to announce the news Thursday when he tweeted, “finally got to add more to my bio than just my schools.”

Transylvania University, colloquially known as "Transy", is a private university in Lexington, Kentucky. It was founded in 1780 and was the first university in Kentucky. It offers 36 major programs, as well as dual-degree engineering programs, and is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Below is a link for ore information:

16. In 1988

Transylvania University experienced an infringement on the institution's trademark when Hallmark Cards began selling "Transylvania University" T-shirts. The product, developed for the Halloween season, was intended to be a novelty item purporting to be college wear from the fictional Count Dracula's alma mater. When contacted by Transylvania University, Hallmark admitted that they were not aware of the Kentucky-based institution and recalled the merchandise.

3. That's an awesome pic, smirky dood.

4. What a freaky little bland Nazi Boi.

I can't find the right words. Erie? Scary? Unsettling? The face of a cardboard, Seconal Regime?

Will he be working on the Trump Youth Brigades eventually? He has the right stuff. He's good at being disrespectful to elders, too. That's a plus on the application.

Oh, wait...the MAGAs and White Supremacists are already on that. A generation of Fascismo Boots marching across the nation for the Glorious, Dear Leader next term.

Catch a rising star! He fits like syrup drizzled over soggy pancakes.

6. Yes, he could easily be cast in a role

as a Hitler youth in a movie. Oops, maybe we shouldn't say anything, he might sue us for $250 million.

29. Yeah, he would be perfect

5. Qualifications for Nicky boi joining Mitch's campaign?

He made money off being a nasty teen, and the suit does not give him any cover for who he actually is. He needed discipline for what he did, not to be rewarded by the law suits that his parents initiated. JMHO!

[BusyBeingBest]

7. LOL, based on what? Being a smirking little punk?

[Stuart G]

8. McConnell's deliberate attempt to inject media hatred into his reelection.

...Yes, I think that is it. This student had a confrontation with a Native American that went viral all over the country...Eventually, (after some research, I found out) the media companies settled law suits filed by Sandman for improper coverage. In a few moments, links to that one...Sandman (in my opinion ) is in the center of a "fake media story" that McConnell is selling to Kentucky for reelection campaign. I don't know if this will work to get him reelected, but it shows (in my opinion) the worry that McConnell has about this election.

.......................here is a link to the story on Sandman...You have to look down the article to find info on the settlement by the media. (the title of that section is ... "Defamation lawsuits" )

13. Guy looks like he's got the brains of a turd.

18. The TAA has a problem with your post...(sarcasm, humor, rediculous post by me)

.......The Turd Association of America, which I am a dues paying member, does not want to be associated in any way with this guy. He is really a piece of shit...Please in the future refer to him..."he's got the brains of a piece of shit"....Thank You for reading this one.. At least it was short.....

[Vinca]

21. LOL - good one.

[jmowreader]

14. What "coalitions" is this individual going to build?

Dear Mitch:

Y’all fucked up. Seriously. And as a Democrat, I thank you for it.

You know that new “grassroots director” you hired, Nicholas Sandmann? Everyone in America hates his guts. There’s a German word that applies here, Backpfeifengesicht. It means “a person who needs to be punched in the face.” That describes Sandmann to a tee.

So, you keep on doing what you’re doing. Amy McGrath will make a great senator.

Yours truly, Real America.

19. Nice to see Alfred E. Neuman is still getting work even after "MAD Magazine" folded.

Director of inbred mouth breathing?

26. Any doubt that turtle boy is a bigot and a racist

That can now be erased

28. I can easily picture him in Kenosha with an assault weapon.

[Scarsdale]

30. I hope he shows

Moscow Mitch as much "respect" as he showed the Native American gentleman. This smarmy little prick does not deserve recognition after what he did. He tried to show what a big man he is by disrespecting an older gentleman. Wait until he has to face the world on his own merits, then we will see how far he goes.
