I found few reasons to praise the George W. Bush administration. However, I believe he appointed two individuals who were outstanding in their position as Secretary of State. Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice served in the most important cabinet position in the 21^st century. Unfortunately, they were under the control of Satan’s emissary on earth, Dick Cheney.

President Obama followed Bush’s example and appointed Hillary Clinton, and then John Kerry to head the State Department. In today’s world it is diplomacy which wins wars, not guns.

Therefore, when Trump nominated the Exxon-Mobile CEO to become his Secretary of State, I, along with hundreds of other politicos, were dumbfounded. Without a single minute of experience in government at any level; without having extraordinary military credentials; Trump selected a man whose only achievements were securing land to drill for oil; increasing Exxon’s wealth; and the fact that he is a close friend of Vladimir Putin.

Rex Tillerson joins other Trump appointees and nominees by proving in a very short time that he was the worst possible choice for his position. He refuses to answer questions during press conferences. The State Department’s budget has been cut by one-third. He fired the three most experienced and knowledgeable members of his team; serving our nation since the Jimmy Carter administration.

The most serious example is Tillerson’s lack of action regarding North Korea. Since Trump’s inauguration, Kim Jong-un launched multiple missiles, some landing in the Sea of Japan. Tillerson and Trump have made no comments, and have taken no action regarding this escalating problem.

What action would previous Secretaries of State taken after North Korea’s violation of international law?

First of all, they would have talked to the American people, and assured them that they would take action against the totalitarian nation. Secondly, he or she would have begun constant contact with his or her Chinese counterpart. China is the key to destroying the autocratic rule of Kim Jong-un. China is responsible for North Korea’s financial well-being, and for supplying oil to the small nation.

Tillerson is more concerned with maintaining a close relationship with Putin. His first action was to meet with a Russian Ambassador in Brussels.

Putin considers the State Department his greatest enemy. The person he continues to hate most is former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton. It is obvious that Tillerson is receiving his orders directly from Putin.

Tillerson’s nomination only makes sense when we examine the many, many other connections between Trump, his circle of sinners, and Vladimir Putin. Every examination of Trump’s history, and the history of his campaign, produces additional information regarding Putin’s control over your illegitimate president.

Trump has an excuse for not acting ‘presidential;’ he is not in control of the White House.

Trump was gifted the election by the Electoral College, and this has proven to be the greatest attack on America in history. He is destroying every effort made by past presidents to gain the respect of the American people. Under orders from Putin, Trump has adopted the position of ‘fuhrer.’ He fails to listen to the American people and continues to advance his own and Putin’s agendas.

“Fire the Fool” is coming soon; April 1^st is just weeks away.
