And you don’t think Rex Tillerson can do that?

That’s not the issue.

The issue is the conflict of interest.

Tillerson stated in 2009 that he favors a carbon tax as “the most efficient means of reflecting the cost of carbon in all economic decisions—from investments made by companies to fuel their requirements to the product choices made by consumers.”

In 2013, Tillerson outlined his support for the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), stating at the Global Security Forum: “One of the most promising developments on this front is the ongoing effort for the Trans-Pacific Partnership... The 11 nations that have been working to lower trade barriers and end protectionist policies under this partnership are a diverse mix of developed and developing economies. But all of them understand the value of open markets to growth and progress for every nation.”

In September 2013, Tillerson wrote an op-ed piece in The Wall Street Journal defending Common Core.

His views and statements ARE concerning. I trust Trump. But I don’t trust Tillerson. Does that make sense?
