The guy clearly hates his job and being in the spot light. I honestly can't see him going the full term.

He only seems to hate his job if you think a Secretary of State must always be seeking the limelight. He clearly has a considerably different view of the post than most recent Secretaries. I think you'd have to go all the back to Stenttinus (FDR/Truman) to get someone close to being not a gloryhound in the role.

I have been thinking the same thing, ever since day one when he took the position.
He will not last. trump has been placing incompetent people in his administration.

We should all hope for Sexy Rexy to never resign.
Secretary Tillerson is the greatest of all time.

Probably in the months after the midterms. The dude won't make the full term.

Looks like Rex Tillerson wants to leave, possibly even before the end of this year.

-exit, quickly replacing -gate as the most annoying overused political suffix.

both parties must come together on bipartisan exitgate reform bridging the divide using common sense socially liberal fiscally conservative policy to fix the gridlock in Washington

Tillerson is probably one of the most reasonable people in Trump's administration. I actually hope he stays on so the role isn't filled by Giuliani or Christie Tongue

His opposition to pulling out of the Paris Climate Accord and his desire to appoint people based on merit rather than how hard they can suck Trump earned enough of my respect for him to be my favorite person in the entire administration. I guess there's a really low bar when you're competing against people like Sessions and DeVos.

LOL Christie. He wouldn't be confirmed by the senate. If Tillerson resigns, I'm sure that Nikki Haley would take over the State Dept.

If Trump is true to character, he'll wait until 20 minutes before Tillerson plans to resign and then fire Sessions via Twitter.

Well he threatened to fire Tom Price yesterday, so it'll make for an interesting game on who gets canned first.

In fairness, I kinda got the sense he was just joking about that tbh.
