circle and there s lots of reports this week that, you know, tillerson called him a moron and all that, but also that tillerson, kelly, mattis have some kind of suicide pact, where they said, you know, if he fires any one of us, we re all going, but they are there because in the words of bob corker, the head of the senate foreign relations committee, republican, they act as a buffer. they are stopping chaos in terms of our foreign policy from becoming imposed by the president. it s a very intriguing situation, but the president i think in this instance is playing to the base once more. yeah, we should point out those were the views of the statement of senator corker, not of yes okay. let s talk about the split with rex tillerson. there was a report this week that tillerson had seriously considered quitting over the summer and at one point, not to the president, but to some other people he called the president a moron. that led to this.
the foreign offerses in every embassy foreign officers in every embassy of the world. this is also a huge problem for president trump. in the sense that if you talk about the iran deal now, with that short window, if he decertifies effectively to get the french crucially on board who may come on board with him about reforming the deal, if they donn trust the only guy who is in the room in paris with them, secretary of state tillerson, their willingness to say to all their domestic manufacturers who have those nice deals in iran, hey, by the way, we re going to push on this, but those manufacturers say you re talking to tillerson, trump is tweeting tillerson is an idiot. that s very hard diplomacy. i think tillerson s future hinges on whether or not he did call president trump in a moron. i mean this in a specific sense. if he did, it will be made known to the president. it is a fireable offense for any
