My statement on the firing of Rex Tillerson and nomination of Mike Pompeo:pic.twitter.com/wTICxMDS7H
Tillerson’s tenure was obviously unsuccessful. He was undermined at every turn by the WH, failed to achieve results for U.S. on the world stage, & his misguided so-called reorganization (http://nbcnews.to/2F4kXHq ) of State has plunged our diplomatic & development corps into crisis
Unfortunately, I see no reason for optimism that Mike Pompeo would be better. The common denominator remains an unstable and unwise president...
...and Pompeo’s record demonstrates no evidence he could temper President Trump’s most dangerous whims, restore U.S. standing in the eyes of the global community, or effectively lead our diplomatic and development professionals.
Our natl. security is directly dependent on investments in diplomacy & development & competent execution of our foreign policy. I hope & expect the Senate will conduct a rigorous confirmation process to determine whether Pompeo is the right person to serve as Secretary of State.
