News Post 32

Breaking News on CNN: Trump will most likely pick ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson to be his nomination for secretary of state according to multiple sources. Trump's pick has no experience in foreign policy, similar to Trump, but has many relationships with leaders in other countries by closing large deals for the world's largest energy company. Trump believes that Tillerson's expert negotiation skills will do us well especially in the oil business and managing the state department. Many fear that both Trump and Tillerson will bring US policy far more in line with Russia than we should be. This article also says that Tillerson will do just fine fitting in with the majority of Trumps Cabinet due to the fact that they are "corporate titans" and "Wall Street Players". But before he can even assume the position, he must satisfy senators by proving his knowledge that doesn't retain to just business. There isn't much talk about Tillerson's actual stance on foreign policy therefore he will have to prove himself even more.
