This explains why he’s not filling all those government positions – he’s outsourcing the work directly to the Exxons of the world – including the P.R.

I guess deconstructing the administrative state means turning it into a corporate state.

He better enjoy it while it lasts. That clock is ticking …

It’s nice to see Rex working diligently for his former employer while we pay his salary, protection and travel expenses. I’m sure Exxon (and Tillerson) will share the profits with US taxpayers as a sign of gratitude.

45,000 construction & manufacturing jobs in the U.S. Gulf Coast region.

I hope some of the jobs come to south Louisiana. If we have to take the pollution, then people should at least get jobs. The problem is that oil and gas companies have automated since the drop in prices, and, even if drilling activity revives, only about half the number of jobs for real people will return. Sad.

To repeat myself: Dems must (1) claim credit for all Obama Jobs; (2) publicize every plant closure and layoff in America. Or Trump will win this PR battle even as he tanks the economy. Get on it, DNC/MoveOn/Whoever.

Dumbshit. The proper word in the middle tweet was principles, not principals. A very common sixth grade error.

The US is now Standard Oil, pre 1911. Same MO, same mindset: Rape the earth, screw over the competition, embrace Calvinistic prosperity politics (god™ rewards his own), winner take all. Pure patriarchy.
