Trump Names Failed 2017 Labor Nominee Andrew Puzder as Ambassador to E.U.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Donald Trump has named former fast-food CEO and failed 2017 labor
secretary nominee Andrew Puzder to be ambassador to the European Union.
Puzder was forced to withdraw from consideration as labor secretary in
Trump's first Cabinet amid allegations of domestic violence and reports
of widespread sexual harassment and labor and safety violations at his
chain restaurants Carl's Jr. and Hardee's.
