The problem with tillerson is that he is an executive. Doesn’t matter how great he is or great negotiator he is. He will review the state personnel and see all the great “qualifica tions” on their resumes. Grad degrees from ivy league schools and not clean house. He is an exec not an idealogue. You need an idealogue who understands that these people all throughout our government are a cancer, and don’t have America’s best interest at heart. Clinton “drained the swamp” so to say of all the Reagan Bush people. W did not and had all those people in the Fed undermining him. Carson for instance is a nice guy and a good brain surgeon from what I hear, but that doesn’t change the fact that he is an imbecile and not qualified to make the change in our government. Trump cannot succeed unless he first drains the swamp. Picking so called good people or smart people is not the solution. Having the balls to fight fire with fire is what is necessary. Corp execs may very well be capable of doing the job, but you need people who will completely bleachbit the government of every person in every department after Obama.
Negotiating skills are transferrable from industry to industry and from industry to government. He has a working relationship with Putin, your characterization of “BFF” is inaccurate.
“was struck by how Rubio and McCain, came out expressing great concerns and doubt about him..”
I’m telling you, if the Senate was 50-50 McCain would pull a Jim Jeffords
switch sides and give the Senate to the Dems to “keep balance and deny Trump too much power”. McCain has gone from useful idiot to outright traitor.
Hehehe.... you said Republican senators.
You watch, Rubio hang his star with the McLame/Grahamnasty RINO ring of the Repugnants in the Senate. Should he do so, I hope he pays dearly for it, and but good!
Watch the video.
Watch the video.
Tillerson was decorated by Putin. BFF is how the world is perceiving it. Good luck getting any help on the Chicoms for example if Trump continues in this vein.
Rubio was just elected. He won’t “pay for” anything for six years.
I did....
LOL! When Newt disagrees with Trump, he speaks up - why can't he actually like Tillerson?
For all his faults, Newt has been on the right side in most things.
And who would these idealogical people you speak of be, who will do all of this housecleaning with bleach who can also get consent from the Senate?
Your wanting something and being able to execute it in the real world are two different things.
That was one of the dumbest posts I ever read here.
-—The problem with tillerson is that he is an executive——
Which is why he will be good.
He is not a common beer drinking football loving punch press operator off the factory floor who constantly spews his wisdom.
I’v heard it thousands of times.... “and I told that engineer....”
*****************
No kidding?
ummmm - got some examples of Newt being after something - except what he can for country?
Newt’s a politician, so I can’t fully trust him, just as I can’t fully trust most of them. That’s what I like about Trump; he’s not one of them.
Which doesn’t mean that I’m SURE I can fully trust Trump, just that one of the barriers to trust is out of the way.
Smokin’ the sofa today are we?
Carson is an imbecile? How many pediatric brain surgeries have you, a non-imbecile, completed successfully?
