Rex Tillerson Removed as Secretary of State…

I liked Rex , but had no idea, that his ideology leaned so far to the left way of thinking, with that in mind, we have "been there and done that" time, to move on. What do you think?



Rex Tillerson Removed as Secretary of State…

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson did an excellent job representing the professional and deliberate diplomatic approach of the U.S. and President Trump administration.  His personal view toward foreign service on behalf of the U.S. was exemplary, and deserves high praise.

Having said that, as President Trump stated earlier today, there was also more than a tinge of disunity between the advocated views of Tillerson and the views of the Commander in Chief toward economic national security.   At times the fractures between policy perspectives were visible.  Over time those differences became more obvious.

As Secretary of the DoS Rex Tillerson supported the Paris Climate Treaty; the President did not; Secretary Tillerson supported the Obama administration’s Iran deal; the President did not; Tillerson was more apologetic toward lax immigration policy; the President is not; and there were other visible departures visible surrounding the use of economic leverage to achieve national security advancements, specifically on the issue of China and North Korea policy.

The primary perspective, drawing the greatest contrast, surrounded President Trump’s view and expressed policy of emphasizing strength; particularly economic strength – to gain national security objectives.

The rest of a Very good read

I don't think Trump had any problems with Tillerson's beliefs as Trump doesn't have any beliefs. He believes what the last person he spoke to believes. Tillerson referred to Trump as a 'Moron' in a meeting and that hurt poor old Frumpy's humongous ego.
