And when you’ve lost Hugh Hewitt...
Hmmm............?
Tillerson claimed (60’/?) he “rode for the brand”!
Trump.45 rides For old Glory;

Ping to another good article on why Trump needed to change the SOS. It’s Hugh Hewitt authoring & normally I’m skeptical of him, but what he says here is what I’ve been picking up from other sources for months .... staffing up hasn’t been happening at State & Tillerson isn’t in sync with Trump’s views on things. I hope Pompeo is as good as Hewitt (and others) think he will be. Tillerson also has not been doing much of anything at State to get court ordered Hilly emails released in a timely manner (Judicial Watch has complained bitterly about this) - hopefully Pompeo will make this a higher priority. There’s no love lost between Pompeo & Hilly - she outright lied to him during the Benghazi hearing & he was well aware of it since he already knew the answer to the question he asked her.
Agree that TRex was way too inexperienced with the ways of the Company and its affiliates to discern when he was being rolled
not to mention the State Department was and still is a Clinton-Obama bureaucratic viper pit
Before the regular FReeper virtue signallers pile on their requisite trashing of Hugh Hewitt, let me say that this is an excellent and insightful article. Once again, President Trump has demonstrated that he sees clearly and acts purposefully and decisively.
If Hewitt loves Pompeo so much, then Pompeo must be a secret agent of the deep state.
Another big unforced error on the part of Pres. Trump?
I doubt that Trump will remain in the Iran deal past May.
Tillerson did a good job in some areas.
He was a vast improvement over Kerry and Clinton.
He improved America’s reputation in the world and along with Trump vastly improved the situation in Saudi Arabia and the middle East.
However, he failed to surround himself with a quality team at State and allowed himself and Trump to be sabotaged by the swamp creatures that control the State Department. He was particularly bad on Iran.
It was time for for him to go and he did not seem sorry to leave.
Rex Had his fair shot. He took the job and immediately started disagreeing on policy. I don’t think he was overwhelmed but I don’t think he was served very well by the career bureaucrats.
I like his behind the scenes style, but still can’t get over where he felt he was entitled to disagree with Trump’s policies and goals and then let it leaked.
How apropos that Hugh is writing at Bezos Blog (WaPo).
Seriesly.
Can Jeff be far behind?
