    The only outing you accomplished is outing yourself as a BS thrower.

    Yep.... also, to throw salt in the wound, it's now being reported that Tillerson officially found out he was fired by a Tweet.... not sure who's tweet (I doubt he follows Trump on Twitter), but that's pretty rude, even for Mr. Celebrity Apprentice... Last I checked, SOS is still an important cabinet position....

    EDIT - Ooops... I was wrong, it was Trump's tweet... What a D*CK move...

    You guessed correctly. Along with other cabinet people, Tillerson was serving at the pleasure of President. He displeased him, out he went.

    Is all there is to it.

    Trump doesn't event have the courage to call someone into his office and say, "You're fired."

    Coward-in-chief.

    You lean left......there is no true Neutral and you clearly aren't any type of conservative. So save the bullshit for your leftist pals.

    Well I don't agree with your dear leader on giving Dreamers a pathway to Citizenship. Nor on changing the age limit for guns. So there goes your lame theory about how I wont criticize Trump.

    Sure I can.....he gave Tillerson a chance. Tllerson wasn't working out. So its time to get someone in there that is on the same page as Trump.

    Then there is General Mattis and General Kelly that makes your argument look foolish.

    Sounds like you are upset that the one thing Tillerson did that was good.....was getting rid of your kind. Demos, out of the State Dept. Handed them their walking papers and said, C-ya. Best thing he ever did for the country.

    Least likely explanation for your post: Tillerson and May were somehow pressured into blaming Russia, when all the evidence points directly to Russia (along with motive).

    Most likely explanation for your post: you are a paid Russian troll.

    Even more strange is how the TDS left was against Tillerson being made as SOS. But now are having a meltdown over Trump getting rid of the guy.

    Trump is an ally for me. Especially when it comes to dealing with your kind. He just needs to learn the Dis a bit better when dealing with your kind.

    I am willing to teach him. As I know how to deal with ALL of your kind!

    As you well know, he did refer to Trump as a "f^%&king moron".

    And since Tillerson was a real CEO of a real global company who actually knew world leaders including Vladimir Putin, he is far more experienced and competent than Trump could ever hope to be.

    Watching Trump retreat into his cable TV enfused world of self validation and yes manism is sad to watch.

    I have no sympathy for Trump, but he is dragging the country he represents and the entire western world down with him.

    I'm wondering too. Putin launches a bio-chemical attack on the UK? Using a chemical weapon that's sure to lead back to Russia? If that's true Putin must think himself invincible. The timing is very suspicious. RMS Lusitania?

    From Obama who filled his post with far left progressive hacks who never questioned his agenda.

    The people don't, but an administration with too many diverse opinions is a failed one.

    So sick of such disingenuous posts. The post I replied to - which wasn't yours - said nothing about Mike Pompeo, and neither did mine. Your fake indignance is wasted here.

    Here is a link on the guy so you don't make yourself look foolish. So what he didn't serve on Foreign Relations. He served on the House Perma Select Committee on Intel. Also Energy and Commerce. So tell us now how Energy and Commerce doesn't deal with any Foreigners.

    "My kind"? That's funny.

    Meanwhile I exposed your failings in logic. Are you at currently at war with Eastasia or Eurasia?

    That is who Trump picked for State. So if you were being disingenuous over the topic. Then I clearly brought you back around.

    Oh and I don't fake with how I treat or feel about your kind. There is nothing fake about that. Don't mistake that, nor underestimate how I treat your kind. Here, there, anywhere.

    Gina Haspel will make Pompeo look like a pacifist. She ran a torture site.

    Yes your kind.....the left leaning. The inferior.

    Nope you didn't you just didn't apply all logic. Try a course something over logic 101......just your kind. That is the only war that matters.
