Mike Pompeo
Pompeo, the CIA Director had been chosen as Tillerson’s replacement.
“Mike Pompeo, Director of the CIA, will become our new Secretary of State. He will do a fantastic job! Thank you to Rex Tillerson for his service! Gina Haspel will become the new Director of the CIA, and the first woman so chosen. Congratulations to all!” Trump tweeted.
“He would bring to the position vast knowledge, experience and success in dealing with dozens of governments and leaders in every corner of the world,” Robert Gates said in a statement. “He is a person of great integrity whose only goal in office would be to protect and advance the interests of the United States.”
The biggest problem facing any person holding office was the expectation that hung over their head.
Trump now had to hope that Mike Pompeo truly proves to be the Secretary of State he really needed.
If that doesn’t happen it would be another bad decision he would have made.
