Brehs, ya'll not paying attention.
Trump has no control over Tillerson.
Tillerson may have wanted to resign out of frustration but he has his own marching orders.
There is no way, if they had the power to do so, that EITHER of these guys (who are used to getting their way all the time) would have accepted what each of them have done to the other. As think skinned as Trump is, can you imagine if a subordinate at the Trump Organization called him a "fukking moron?" He would've been escorted out the minute that became public.
And same for Tillerson. He was at the head of what's probably the most powerful company in the world. He would not sit idly by as all of his policies are undermined PUBLICLY. Over Twitter!
Right now these two are joined at the hip. It's like a couple that stays married for the sake of the kids. Only in this case it's not kids - it's whatever machinations led to this unholy alliance.
Mark this down. Trump is now extremely embarrassed because he's basically been exposed as not really being as "alpha" as he tries to portray. So Tillerson will need to be embarrassed publicly again. Watch out over the next week, for all sorts of embarrassing stories about Tillerson to be leaked. Whether it's silly personal shyt, or things he did while he was at Exxon.
