President Trump is reportedly weighing firing Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin and replacing him with Energy Secretary Rick Perry.

Trump and Perry had lunch at the White House on Monday, but the president did not formally offer the job to Perry then, the New York Times reported. Trump, however, has been considering removing Shulkin from his post and may be interested in putting someone currently in his Cabinet in position to lead the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Perry, the former governor of Texas, served as a pilot in the Air Force before starting a career in politics.

It’s not yet known whether Perry would accept the position or if the president has a replacement for Perry at the Department of Energy in mind, according to the Times.

Shulkin has been the subject of scrutiny in recent weeks, and Trump has reportedly grown frustrated with him.

Last month, the inspector general for the Department of Veterans Affairs found Shulkin misused taxpayer dollars for an 11-day trip to Europe last year, improperly accepted tickets to Wimbledon, and misled agency ethics officials about how he obtained the tickets.

His former chief of staff also doctored an email to ensure the federal government would pay for travel costs for Shulkin’s wife associated with the trip, the watchdog found.

However, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said last week Shulkin has done a "great job."
