Back when Donald Trump announced Rex Tillerson as his choice for Secretary of State, many on the left and even some on the right were skeptical. Tillerson was another non-Washington insider with ties to big business. He was the former CEO of Exxon-Mobil after all. But what he just did proves he is going to be a great secretary of state.
The Dakota Access pipeline has been a massive point of contention for the liberals. However, President Trump has promise to push it through and it will get done, bringing in untold amounts of money for the country. But without provocation at all, Rex Tillerson recused himself from being involved with the project at all.

Tillerson, former CEO of Exxon Mobil Corp., decided last month to remove himself from issues related to pipeline owner TransCanada’s application for a permit, said a letter from the State Department to environmental group Greenpeace on Thursday.
“He has not worked on that matter at the Department of State, and will play no role in the deliberations or ultimate resolution of TransCanada’s application,” said the letter, signed by Katherine McManus, State Department deputy legal adviser.
To me, this proves that Tillerson is the PERFECT Secretary of State for Trump. He is a no nonsense, no Bullshit, transparent person. Recusing himself from something where he clearly had former ties is something that, dare I say it, is patriotic? Don’t tell the liberals I said that, they might melt like snowflakes.
Tillerson is already making friends across the world and is turning in to one of the best ambassadors we have for the US. More people like Rex are needed to continue to drain the swamp and turn America around!
