    No he is not. Dude. Learn the difference between criticism of Tillerson and his decisions and a criticism of Trump and his decisions.

    Tillerson is a complete IDIOT.

    What does it say about Trump that an IDIOT (like Tillerson) would call Trump a MORON?

    wrong, this isnt about liberals, it is about trumps unwillingness to engage in discussions, and thereby only having people that agree with him, makes him short sighted to policy making decisions.

    There was some resistance and trepidation about Tillerson. Since he showed that he is not a dick he won people over.

    cant be tolerated, dissention. ironic coming from those who accuse of being non inclusive.

    this is trumps perogative, and hence my statement about his short sightedness.

    Trumps law: When assessing a situation, think of the most idiotic way to solve it, then execute it with little thought. If said solution was wrong, blame everyone you can think of besides yourself.

    A limp dick?

    He was fired the day after he explicitly criticized Russia for using a Nerve agent in the UK and threatened an explicit retaliation. Something Trump and his White House was unwilling to do.

    Kim is anything but stupid or suicidal. No rocket will ever be launched at US or it's allies for assured retaliation in-kind, and no aggression will be carried while Trump is in the office. And now Kim also knows, his threats are falling on Trump's deaf ears, unlike on the ears of Clinton or Obama. So what does he do? A perfectly logical thing - he calls for negotiations and will be asking for what he needs in exchange for concessions and not to develop.

    Which concessions will not be broken while Trump is in the office, for Trump is not gonna be fooled twice.

    That is not what you were saying when he was appointed. As I recall, you were saying, Tillerson was appointed SoS as a payment to Putin for his help in electing Trump.

    I disagree on that. We must remember who Tillerson was when before he was appointed - a CEO of Exxon! Tillerson is not used to take orders, he was the one giving orders in, or outside Exxon. So, Tillerson thought, he was given a license to shape US foreign policy as he sees feet, and run with it.

    Not quite, Mr. Ex-Secretary of State.

    But if they dont agree tillerson is the one who has to take the orders

    Tillerson was an example of how someone with a severely limited intellect could rise to a position of power.

    Even Exxon was really scraping the bottom of the barrel to install that IDIOT as CEO.

    Rex Tillerson? :roflol:

    Bottom line - Trump is a dick and a coward for firing Tillerson on Twitter. The guy didn't even have the balls to fire him to his face. What kind
    of leader does that? A dick and a coward.
