And we have a winner
And an unconfirmable Sec. of State. candidate. Sounds like a great Secretary of Energy to me.
Again, you are simply wrong. This is a fight I would LOVE to have! If John McCain and Ted Cruz and Rubio think that this man is unqualified let’s hear why. He is every bit as qualified as any lawyer and any politician that we so often assume is qualified. Tell me, how is John Kerry MORE qualified than this man? How was Hillary Clinton MORE qualified than Rex? How?!?
I’m guessing Trump wants a SOS familiar with and who has demonstrated success negotiating with Russia / Putin. He (Trump) already has a VERY good start on good people in place to take care of ISIS / terrorism, get immigration under control, refire the economy, blunt enviro-Nazis, become energy independent, and so on. But, he has no one “in place” to deal with Putin.
We should keep in mind that while we have areas of common interest with Putin, such as defeating ISIS, we ALSO have areas that are highly problematic. It is very dangerous to have Europe at Putin’s mercy, when it comes to energy, for example. The Iranian-Russian-Chinese “axis” is also of great concern.
