BBC News: Reports " US President Donald Trump has fired Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, naming CIA Director Mike Pompeo as his replacement. "
Lets Get Real:
One minute your out of the Office, in this case Africa and then you find that you are out of Office. The sacking seems rather brutal, even by the standards of the Donald or POTUS, take your pick. The State Department is only as powerful as the Secretary of State has the ear of the President. It seems that POTUS wants YES men on his team, he is the President, he wanted the job. Thus we now we have the case of Iran and North Korea, the Trump Oval wants to break the Obama nuclear deal with Iran and start talks with North Korea, the new Secretary of State will have a lot on his plate. One would guess that Tillerson is the shortest serving Secretary of State EVER.
