Trump fires Tillerson a day after Tillerson says Russia is responsible for nerve agent poisoning in the UK, siding with the UK.

And?
"It sounds to me like it would be Russia, based on all the evidence they have", Trump said speaking of Theresa May, whom he will be speaking with later today to hear her full report.

Comey!
Dossier!
Drain the swamp!
Hillary!

Now that I got that off my chest.....back to reality.

Tillerson out. Egads. I just told my husband, who isn't as hard on Trump as I am and really tries to see the good in him. Even he said "This is a bad thing. Bad."

Well, unfortunately your husband has fallen for the librul propaganda. What a shame.

Curious timing, isn't it?

Not to mention that Tillerson was the adult in the room all day, every day about North Korea.

But I'm sure to Trump the opinions of people like Stephen Miller (aka The Troll) and Kellyanne Conway (who is still suffering from PTSD after the Bowling Green Massacre) and Jared Kushner (egads) supersede the opinions of a man like Rex Tillerson.

He was going to leave this spring anyway.

He just had to stick it out a year to get his tens of millions of dollars in tax deferrals.

It’s not like he was acting like a real SoS. Trump meeting with Kim, Ivanka meeting with S. Korea, Jared meeting with Mexico and Israel despite not having security clearances...

He’s a sad figure in history.

He spoke out against Russia and was fired the next day.
 
Re: Tillerson Out

If there was one thing Tillerson did get right ... it was describing Trump as a "moron".
 
Re: Tillerson Out

Gee, I was thinking Nikki Haley could be a good SecState, given her solid record at the UN post
 
Re: Tillerson Out

Maybe State can be staffed now? Or will Pompeo be unable to stop fluffing the President.

Wrong! Kellyanne explained this. Rex Tillerson was asked if he wanted sprinkles on his ice cream, and he said "more on".

President Vlad gave the office boy his orders, and here we are. Now Mueller has someone new to chat with.

The fact that he's constantly replacing his cabinet members is not a good thing. It's like a rotating cast in a TV show.

Trump has probably fired more people from the WH than he did as Apprentice host. I thought he picked the best people.

Why should he even bother? You'll just reject it, anyways.

You should if you want to be taken with more than an eyeball roll for the usual conspiracy theories and baseless accusations.
Or, you keep keep this at tabloid level and we can see what Perez Hilton has to say about it.
 
Re: Tillerson Out

Why do so many express shock that federal employees, especially POTUS appointed, are subject to replacement?
 
Re: Tillerson Out

Trumps personal aide - Josh McEntee - was also fired this morning and escorted from the White House.

Trump didn't have the balls to tell Tillerson face to face. That should tell you everything you need to know.

Which specific posters in this thread are you referring to? I'd like to see the posts that show "shock" because POTUS appointed employees are subject to replacement, or posts that show that someone never realized this happened before. I just read through everyone's post in this thread, and I don't see a single one saying "OMG the President can fire his Secretary of State? I never knew that.".

I'm confident you think you have a valid point somewhere in your mind but if you had a point, you should make it. I'm unconcerned with your "question".
