One of Trump's treasury assistants is a survivalist who invented a bizarre techno-bow

Among the individuals it highlighted is a man named Jon Perdue, a special assistant at the Treasury Department. Perdue is the author of a book on "the nexus of Latin American radicalism and Middle Eastern terrorism" and a member of a relatively obscure think tank. He's also a self-described expert in guerrilla warfare who invented a survivalist gadget bow to use after the apocalypse.

The product in question is called the Pack Bow, and it was apparently featured on CNBC's Make Me a Millionaire Inventor in 2015. Its site is currently accepting preorders in the form of mailing list signups, and yes, that's the only shot we could find of the Pack Bow in action above. The site's ad copy is like the start of a D&D session set in Cormac McCarthy's The Road.
