shite pick. Worst Cabinet pick by a mile. Makes Ben Carson to HUD look like a wonderful decision.

First off HUD is a public health issue so you are wrong there.

Secondly, give me Tillerson over the inside the beltway hacks like HRC and JK

You should've alerted the board before you had experimental surgery to get your balls removed.

Worst Cabinet pick since Wilson chose William Jennings Bryan to State.

Nearly 100 fricking years in the making.

Shitty arse pick.

The hope is that he doesn't get confirmed. Or at least that the threat of blocking his confirmation leads Trump to appoint someone else.

Do you know anything about him or do you just see "ExxonMobil" and revolt?

Do I know the guy personally? No.

But I've actually been in the same room as him at a big energy conference a few years ago.

Honestly, the most curious part of the announcement is the potential appointment of John Bolton as Deputy Secretary. He is extremely anti-Putin and Russia. If Trump wants a group of advisers that are combative with each other, this is one way to do it.

I see a guy who wants legislative action on climate change, received a national honor from Putin and the Kremlin, and a guy who doesn't want to continue with sanctions on Russia -- and then I revolt.

I think Trump likes to hear an array of ideas and not surround himself with monolithic thought.

It's a good thing.

Yea, we're going to miss these halcyon days of State Department leadership.

Because it's about policy over politics. The energy war may largely define the next few decades. From that vantage, he would certainly be qualified.

Apparently only community organizers, life long politicians, and political hacks should fill these roles. The best and brightest need not apply. If you have had any business success you will only use this position to further your wealth and are unqualified.....
