Turns out Tillerson stands to gain a fortune by the sanctions against Russia being lifted.

Forget Crimea

My prediction is that Trump and Tillerson move to lift sanctions so that they can use the POTUS position to further their own financial gain.

No he does not because he is divesting himself of Exxon. So Exxon can make billions off Russian and Tillerson will not see a dime.

If Trump wanted to do this, all he had to do was keep running his huge conglomerate that is already worth billions. Your guess is shite.

I thought he was to divest himself of Exxon stock.

Also, that article implied that he would get some financial gain but didn't say anything about how he personally was going to gain anything from his dealings as secretary of state. Looked to me like someone in media doesn't like the fact that he looked out primarily for Exxon while he was chairman. I don't know if he will be a good secretary of state, but the fact that Exxon benefited from his work should not be reason to reject him, unless we just don't like the oil business.
