Some thought Donald Trump was guilty of nepotism in giving jobs to Jared and Ivanka, but the degree of 'jobs for the boys' has gone through the roof in Joe Biden's presidency. Although Biden has not himself bestowed a top job on his son Hunter for obvious reasons, his aides are recruiting from within their families at an astonishing rate. At least five children of his top aides have secured coveted jobs in the new administration. They include two sons and a daughter of the White House counsellor, the daughter of a deputy White House chief of staff and the daughter of the director of presidential personnel.
One White House official defended the President, saying that all those hired were qualified for their jobs. Thank goodness for that. The least expected is that the thousands of other applicants for the jobs were also qualified. The official added "The president has instituted the highest ethical standards of anyone to ever hold this office,” However, the US government’s former ethics chief slammed the Biden administration for a potentially illegal nepotism spree.
