From what we can see, Perry seems to be a closed-mouth gum chewer, but he definitely enjoys blowing a bubble or two. The bubble was actually pretty bad. We're going to guess that the gum was old, tasteless and a bit tough. SAD!
Twitter chewed it up.
And there's Rick Perry smacking on bazooka and blowing bubble bubbles. #Inauguration

Please tell me someone saw Rick Perry blowing a bubble with his gum during the Rabbi's prayer. That's our energy secretary y'all.

It's unclear if Perry brought enough gum for everyone.
@BraddJaffy @dhambrick63 OMG Perry! Did you bring enough for everyone?

Perry is Trump's pick for energy secretary, and according to The New York Times, Perry seems to have misunderstood the role and responsibilities that came with the job.
