He's obviously being all humble-brag about how he didn't really want the job and he was going to retire but his duty to his country or whatever. He isn't actually literally saying he doesn't want to be the SecState.

maybe, but it seems like trump basically ignores him and the guy had to stay at a sanitarium for his first overseas trip so he might regret it a little

lmao Trump badgered Tillerson into taking the head job in the department he would then loving slash, just like he badgered that one guy at an official WH briefing into talking about Trump's hole in one story.



On another note, politics is going to be loving boring as hell post-Trump. Nothing will ever compare to the literal daily lols I'm getting out of this. It just doesn't let up. This lollercoaster just never slows down!

Lol that Tillerson's wife hates him so much that, when he told her he would be retiring and they could spend more time together, she said "take a job that will keep you away from me 24/7 for the next 4-8 years and which you have a high chance of being assassinated"

"“We’ve waited eight years for this, to be able to fill these posts with Republicans,” said another top GOP Hill staffer. “We know Trump isn’t part of the establishment and that it’s going to be a bit different, but it should go without saying that a Republican administration is expected to staff federal agencies with Republicans.”"

When people start losing the ability to choose their doctor/start losing coverage, it'll be blamed on Obamacare again anyway. Who the gently caress chooses their doctor? Just pick the closest person to your home with the most white Anglo-Saxon sounding name like everyone else.

Apparently the most influential donor to Trump's campaign, and primary funder of Breitbart, is an autistic 60 year old computer scientist who believes that radiation has magical healing powers, that climate change is good for the world, and is paying for scientific research into unraveling the hidden secrets of 12,000 bottles of human urine.

You think Trump can move in two opposing directions? Nah. More like 1/2 dimensional chess. With a single pawn.
