Tuesday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” while discussing President-elect Donald Trump naming ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson as his secretary of state, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said, “With all due respect to the president’s nominee, perhaps he’s suitable for something else,” adding that secretary of state was “a revered position.”
Pelosi said, “First of all, let’s — what is the job? The job — the secretary of state is really in line to succession to the president of the United States … Well, by sequence, they are, but that’s the primary one and has special status. So the secretary of state is the person who should be recognized as a person who is a leader in terms of our security, our values, and our interests. In terms of the president-elect’s nomination, the coziness with Vladimir Putin is very alarming and should have eliminated him, frankly. Right now, his approach to the sanctions on Russia, because of their aggression in Europe, should be enough to say, perhaps another relationship with the administration, but not secretary of state.”

Kerry, while remarkably stupid, has no history of being corrupt
Trust me, if John Kerry had not married his gravy train, he’d be living a Clinton-style life of perpetual grifting.
So, is she implying that Tillerson is not the equal or better than John F Kerry or Hillary Rodham Clinton?
The bar has been set quite low for Tillerson hop over.
Piglosi is not qualified to breathe air.
agreed! such a deceitful person
What? You mean he hasn’t set up his own server yet?
Nanners, you have to confirm Tilleson to see what he wiil do. Just like Commie Care. Put some ice on it, you old whore!...
Atleast, he will not steal furniture from SoS , as Hillary did.
After the scum the Obama Cabinet was, I don’t want to hear a word from the Dems or anyone else!!
My only concern is that there has been precedence in hiring from the private sector to fulfill Cabinet Posts.
JFK tapped Ford President Robert McNamara, one of Ford's "Whiz Kids," as Secretary of Defense.
Secretary McNamara went on to give us:
The F-111,
The Vietnam War,
and the M-16 without a chrome-lined barrel and chamber.
Hopefully, Trump's "Whiz Kids" have a better track record.
I am of the opinion that Tillerson polluted the BSA with his pro homosexual views. As such, he is unfit for the job.
Pelosi, you are not worthy to shine his shoes. How you ever got to where you are, just shows the stupity of your fellow democrats.
Nancy doesn’t like Rex, that’s good enough for me.
Just because Jefferson is revered by some doesn’t prove anything about Cordell Hull, as an example.
Idiots, goons, traitors and scammers like Hillary and John Kerry don’t just grow on tress, you know.
Pelosi is a damn fool! No tother way to put it!
Indeed.
