From the get go, the Trump base didn't understand a globalist placement like that, unless it was to calm fears, until he got settled in. The guy was against pulling out of TPP, he was a climate changer(because big oil profits) and had no clue how to deal with Lil Rocket Man
From the get go, Tillerson was put at a disadvantage by the Trump administration. Why would a leader do that? Trump's preference for operating in chaos is beyond troubling. It actually hurts our diplomatic efforts with EVERY country. We will have to spend years trying to mend the alliances Trump is destroying.
Trump has been in office for a year -- why is it taking him sl long to put his 'strong, working' team in.
Because Chuck Schumer in the Senate has the power to hold everything up. Just like Mitch McConnell did to Obama.
Without a super majority in the senate, things stagnate in times like this.
Tillerson was a sane and reasonable guy who did his best under insane circumstances. Pompeo strikes me as a flake and a bootlicker so he should fit right in.
Not me.
A super globalist placement, was confusing to me. He contradicted Trump on many occasions like they were not even close to being on the same page.
Sure you can. It's bizarre how trapped many of you are in your old ways of thinking, and how hard you fight to keep things just the way they are...even though DC is dysfunctional as can be. You can tell people are trapped in their ruts by how hysterical they get, how afraid of change they are...and it's not just liberals. A lot of old school conservatives feel just the same way you folks do.
No it cannot. The pres works for the people. We the people all of us -not just his followers. There must be checks n balances, different options and ideas not just a bunch of yes men and robots. For that. We just need a tyrant.
This is Troubling, to say the least. Tillerson was one of the last professionals left in Trump's cabinet.
The guy is going to be left with nothing but political shills, so much for emptying the swamp.
He was a big time globalist that pushed the climate change global warming crap, so his big oil buddies could make a killing off the consuming people. Who banks, when a Barrel of Oil is $100-$200?
And this coming from someone that has 2 wells on 2 separate pieces of land on the Eagle-Ford Shale.

Oh bs. If he was paying attention to you-libs-the -people he would've drowned himself by now. Firing his SoS was hardly the work of a tyrant. Now if Trump was abusing the FISC and using this country's intelligence services to spy on a presidential opponent, then I would feel differently.
