From the Hill:
Rex Tillerson, chosen today by President-elect Donald Trump to be secretary of State, is just what our country needs. I have personally seen Tillerson in action for nearly 30 years. As the chief executive of ExxonMobil, he is a strong leader with a track record of being tough in deals with Russia and getting results. This is what our country needs now more than ever.
From Fox News:
On Tuesday morning, after a weekend of anonymously-sourced winks and nudges, President-elect Trump formally announced that he will nominate ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson to be the next Secretary of State.
Tillerson’s nomination would be a disaster. He is a CEO, not an experienced diplomat. Moreover, he is simply too close to Russia and Vladimir Putin to be an effective or credible advocate for American interests around the world.
