Robert Charles: Tillerson ‘Never Learned to Salute Smartly and Execute’ Trump’s Decisions

‘I think Ronald Reagan, frankly, probably would have shown him the door last July 20th when the secretary said that the president was a moron’

EXCERPT:

CHARLES: "You know, bottom line is that the president sees rough waters ahead and he needs seasoned pilot at the ship estate. And have you got North Korea with a great potential opening on the horizon there. You have got Russia testing him every day, China just has a leaders that declared indefinite tenure and you've got Iran with a go no go decision on the nuclear accord in May. So, you know, really the truth is Rex Tillerson was a steady hand for the first year but he never learned to salute smartly and execute the president’s decisions. And I -- I think Ronald Reagan, frankly, probably would have shown him the door last July 20th when the secretary said that the president was a moron. At a certain point, you just have to act and be done with it."
