I think the term is “cabinet”. Not sure why they get furniture euphemisms and the Russians don’t.

[Blaze_Curry]

Exactly. When was the last time a professor or even doctor of something was in a presidential cabinet?

[RickMycroft]

They all suppose what they want to suppose…

[Cunk]

I believe they refer to some people as “chairs” too.
