I agree with Truth. Tillerson knew what Trump was about before he took the job. So all this talk about God was not done with him yet is a buch of BS. Tillerson willingly jumped in the car with Trump. So if Trump is about to drive that car off a cliff it’s his own fault for gettin in it in the first place. No sympathy here.

Infuriated by the ongoing Russia investigations — and possibly seeking a new attorney general — President Trump continued to attack Jeff Sessions on Tuesday for failing to investigate former election opponent Hillary Clinton and officials who have leaked information to news reporters.

“Attorney General Jeff Sessions has taken a VERY weak position on Hillary Clinton crimes (where are E-mails & DNC server) & Intel leakers!” Trump said in an early morning tweetstorm.

Trump also criticized his attorney general for not pursuing reports from early this year that officials in Ukraine also sought to interfere in the election, in a tweet that referenced Fox News host Sean Hannity.

“Ukrainian efforts to sabotage Trump campaign — ‘quietly working to boost Clinton,'” Trump tweeted. “So where is the investigation A.G. @seanhannity.”

A series of lawmakers and political analysts said it appears that Trump is attacking Sessions because he wants him to leave office, perhaps with an eye toward eventually getting rid of Russia investigation special counsel Robert Mueller.

“Fully transparent: @POTUS wants to force Sessions to resign so he can appoint someone to curb Mueller probe,” tweeted Rep. Adam Schiff of California, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee.

Noting that a Sessions replacement would face a tough confirmation fight, Schiff added that Trump’s putative plan “only works if Senate lets it.”

As political consultant John Weaver put it: “This is about getting to Mueller.” Weaver worked for Ohio Gov. John Kasich during the 2016 Republican presidential primaries.

Sessions, who has been criticized by Trump for weeks, has so far refused to resign.

Trump in action. As a TAC reader put it: “His campaign was one giant sideshow of inconsistencies and bombast. He’s never had a principle he couldn’t abandon save for self-aggrandizement.”

And we won’t even get into the endless streams of ignorance and vulgarity Trump displays on any given day.

My point is this – Rex Tillerson and EVERYONE else who hitched their wagon to this grotesque excuse of a human-being, let alone a president, can’t act like they didn’t know exactly the kind of isht they’d have to deal with when they agreed to serve “at the pleasure of THIS president.”

Word to Tillerson: YOU got exactly what YOU signed up for. And btw -God plays NO PART in man’s mess.

And during that interview he told the IJR “I didn’t want this job. I didn’t seek this job,”

The Hill: “Tillerson: ‘I didn’t want this job’

When asked why he agreed to take on the position of secretary of State, Tillerson said his wife “told me I’m supposed to do this.” “I told you God’s not through with you,” he said his wife told him. The former Exxon Mobil Corp. CEO added: “I was supposed to retire in March, this month. I was going to go to the ranch to be with my grandkids.”

Tillerson said he serves at the “pleasure of the president.”

“My wife convinced me,” he said. “She was right. I’m supposed to do this.”
