Tillerson’s Fury at Trump Required an Intervention From Pence

[BlueSwan]

No, Tillerson should stay. I may not particularly like the man, but he at least has more sense than Trump and we don't want the entire government run by people with as much intelligence as that lunatic.

I would imagine Mitt is counting his lucky stars that he was never selected to serve in this dysfunctional administration.

Pence is the level headed voice of reason and competence in this White House.

I do not see how Tillerson can continue serving with the confidence of the President after calling him a moron.

His politics suck, but I have to give Tillerson credit for running State as well as he has and actually making an effort to do his goddamn job.

Basically, Pence is the Head of Government and Trump is the Head of State.

This has been plainly obvious for some time

I would argue that the Head of govt is shared between Mattis and Kelly and the Head of State is Trump. Pence is a lackey for Trump for all intents and purposes.

Long story short, Trump is a figurehead who just wants to be remembered forever.

Look on my Stuff, you Winners and feel bad!

Legendary CBS News journalist Bob Schieffer said watching Rex Tillerson pledge his loyalty to the President was like watching a hostage video.

I'd rather Have Romney as Secretary of State... maybe he would have actually staffed the state department instead of leaving it empty
