Trump Unleashes on ‘Dumb as a Rock’ Tillerson: He ‘Didn’t Have the Mental Capacity’
msn ^ | 12/7/2018 | Josh Feldman

President Donald Trump is clearly not happy with comments from his former Secretary of State.

Rex Tillersongot candid today not just about his time at State, but about the President and how “undisciplined” he is. He also claimed that he had to explain to Trump that various things he proposed were illegal.

Trump clearly heard about the comments, and he fired back with some choice words for the man who once reportedly called him a “moron”:

“Mike Pompeo is doing a great job, I am very proud of him,” Trump tweeted Friday afternoon. “His predecessor, Rex Tillerson, didn’t have the mental capacity needed. He was dumb as a rock and I couldn’t get rid of him fast enough. He was lazy as hell. Now it is a whole new ballgame, great spirit at State!”

Tillerson is a drama queen now enjoying favor with the liberals and NeverTrumpers.

People were right when they said he enabled faggots in the Boy Scouts, apparently.

The deep state has discovered Tillerson’s price.

Rex was the third most incompetent and lazy SoS in history, just after Hellary and Kerry the Klown.

Thankfully we had a strategic genius of unsurpassed wisdom and courage in the WH keeping things running !

Tillerson is a jerk. He helped destroy the Boy Souts and pushed the global warming BS. He was against the Embassy move. One of Trumps bad picks.

This time, no tea for the Tillerson.

Deep state: “Make something up, something really bad, about President Trump and we’ll pay you ten thousand.”

Tillerson: “Make it eleven thousand and you’ve got a deal.”

Yep, he made a mistake with him. I know people didn’t want Tillerson.

Personnel changes. It happens.

I guess the NeverTrumpers will be happy when Hillary or one of the other Democrats gets in.

President Trump is up against an avalanche of creeps, back-stabbers and NWO traitors in our government.

Question—. If Tillerson is so dumb, such an idiot, etc. Then why in the heck did Trump pick him in the first place?

Sometimes Trump can be ineloquent - but you know where he stands and that is rare in a politician - Reagan was smoother at it, Truman told people exactly what he thought - nothing artificial. You see it in the Bush funeral - while I thought it was well-done and gracious, there is a reason why Democrats loved him - he was ineffectual and really didn’t like the folks like us who voted him there. Trump strikes back when some detractor runs his mouth, which is just fine with me; the real mistake was that he shouldn’t have hired this boob in the first place.

All the same people who hated and bagged on T Rex will be calling him a heinous and the voice of authority now.

It’s incredible how some of these “respected” individuals achieve prominence in the corporate World when they are known screwups by virtually every one of their subordinates.

As far as Tillerson saying he had to talk Trump out of illegal deals; isn’t that one of the jobs of aides and secretaries, to keep the President informed?

Tillerson did not do Exxon any favors as CEO. Darren Woods is having to work very hard to put Exxon back to where it needs to be and it will take time due to the damage Tillerson did to that fine company.

An honorable man would keep his mouth shut and not gossip about things. One would expect as a former CEO that he would not act up, but goes to show you.

He has made a lot of dumb hires. In that respect he is very naive, he thinks everyone is as sincere as he is in service to their country.

Every one of you misses the point. The point is not that Trump is “man enough” to tell it like it is. (rolls eyes)

The point is, he - TRUMP - is the person hiring all of these “dumb as a rock” people to Cabinet positions. What does it say about his judgement? THAT, is the point.
