Ay-Yi-Yi


Way to drain that swamp, Big D.

An oil exec in charge of the State Department.  No sense pretending.  And a Bush-era necon to help him.
Donald Trump is expected to nominate Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson as his secretary of state, two sources close to the transition process told NBC News on Saturday.

[...]

The sources cautioned that nothing is final until the president-elect officially announces it, likely next week.

And he could change his mind and back again several times before then. But don't hold your breath.

Tillerson at State.  Can it be any more obvious from Trump's appointments that the whole point of becoming president for him is to garner more power for his business adventures?  He just wants to be king of the mountain.
Tillerson will be paired with former U.N. Ambassador John Bolton as his deputy secretary of state for day-to-day management of the department, one source added.
So what will Tillerson do? Oh, wait. I know. Cut Donald in on the oil business when his term is over. This is not an appointment for services rendered, but for services to be rendered.


It's like Christmas for Trump.  Where he gets to pick everything he's ever wanted.

And not just Trump.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
