Yup, anyone who is not categorically insane would realize that is not the line of reasoning that the regime should take.

Hey, moron. You picked him for SoS. What does that say about you? Sorry trump the chump, but getting Putin’s opinion of you isn’t as valuable as you think. He knew how to play you for a fool and whisper sweet nothings in your ear long before he put your illegitimate ass in the White House…He’s got your number, dumbass…and we’re all less secure because of it.

Who’s your daddy?

‘Totally Ill Prepared And Ill Equipped’ To Be State Sec

Wasn’t that obvious when he nominated him?

Talk about creating an opportunity for comments to just write themselves …

lizzymom · May 23, 2019, 1:53pm

Except BamBam was a cheerful little guy, IIRC.

pshah · May 23, 2019, 1:54pm

Actually…I think it was Putin. But I get your point.

bankerpup · May 23, 2019, 1:54pm

If you have to protest you were better prepared for the meeting than the other guy, you weren’t.

Making Drumpf “totally ill prepared and ill equipped” to select cabinet members or serve as President!

pshah · May 23, 2019, 1:57pm

Yes. Because if there’s one thing Trump is known for, it’s his extensive preparation and attention to detail. Just not the kind of guy that would just wing things based on his mood. Oh, and he’d never do that either with his net worth.

You just can’t make this stuff up.

fiznorp · May 23, 2019, 2:01pm

You think I was out-prepared? Well, well, You were Ill Prepared. There. How’s that feel, Rex?

In Toadglans’ defense, he only appointed Tillerson because he wanted to fondle his Russian “Order of Friendship” medal.

josephebacon · May 23, 2019, 2:03pm

Gosh just like a totally ill prepared and ill equipped asshole sitting in the Oval Office…

zillacop · May 23, 2019, 2:05pm

Trashing someone that worked for you to the whole world is pretty disgraceful. And, I know pot calling the kettle…
Maybe after these comments the House Committee should “slip” Tillerson back in for another round. He might have a few more things to add.

“I don’t think I have to prepare very much,” Trump said ahead of his historic first meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un last year. “It’s about attitude, it’s about willingness to get things done. So this isn’t a question of preparation, it’s a question of whether or not people want it to happen, and we’ll know that very quickly.”

Didn’t prepare for Kim, didn’t prepare for Putin, in his own words, 'cause he is a natural!
(as he throws the entire country under the bus for his sick ego)

Perhaps today will be the day he becomes President.

Or maybe tomorrow.

seamus42 · May 23, 2019, 2:14pm

Then by all means, MC Cheetoh, let’s find whoever hired Tillerson and fire that guy!

jep07 · May 23, 2019, 2:14pm

“Look how the U.S. is doing!”

Trump really does believe he owns this Obama-generated economy…

becca656 · May 23, 2019, 2:17pm

Of course Trump said this.

Anyone that challenges the King will die.

Thing is, Trump wasn’t altogether wrong about this because we all said this at the time of his confirmation - what business did Tillerson have becoming SoS when his sole background was in the oil industry?

Never mind that he didn’t make a complete ass of himself in the role and, by Trump administration standards, wasn’t a total embarrassment…

mcbain · May 23, 2019, 2:19pm

I don’t think Trump has any clue at all how stupid this makes him look. “The guy I appointed was completely incompetent.” Only the best people. OK.
