You can make a point about the administration, but if you’re talking about nepotism, specifically, you’re making a point about the wrong administration. There’s a much better example of a recent administration engaging in “peak nepotism”, a recent one that had the president’s children working in the White House.

I’m assuming the point you’re trying to make isn’t actually about nepotism and you’ve simply misunderstood what the word means.



That's not peak nepotism. Peak nepotism would be family members on the Cabinet or the Supreme Court.

Like, say, John F. Kennedy's brother.


Sure. I wasn’t trying to declare which administration was “peak nepotism”, only that calling the current one so is disingenuous when you have only to look as far as the previous one to find one that was more so.
