Sec. of State Rex Tillerson took a shot at Trump and Russia while giving a speech that he was clearly forced to deliver by the White House.

Tillerson said, “And much work remains to respond to the troubling behavior and actions on the part of the Russian government. Russia must assess carefully as to how its actions are in the best interests of the Russian and of the world more broadly. Continuing on our current trajectory is likely to lead to isolation on their part. A situation which is not in anyone’s interests.”
Trump has not lifted a finger to punish Putin and Russia for their behavior. In fact, the president and his House Republican lackeys are set to release an absurd report that claims that Putin didn’t interfere in the election to help Trump.
Rex Tillerson was breathing hard and barely holding it together during his remarks. It was obvious that he did not want to be giving this speech, but was forced to do so by the White House because they are trying to pretend like there is no chaos in the Trump administration.
That was a big shot by Tillerson at Trump and Russia, and whether or not one agrees with what Tillerson has done as Secretary of State, he wasn’t a Trump lap dog. Tillerson’s fate was sealed when he called Trump a moron, but the Sec. of State got the last public word with a not so subtle jab about Trump and Russia.
