President Trump mocked Rex Tillerson as "ill prepared" and “dumb as a rock” as he disputed his former secretary of state's claim that Russian President Vladimir Putin was more prepared than him during a 2017 summit.
“Rex Tillerson, a man who is 'dumb as a rock' and totally ill prepared and ill equipped to be Secretary of State, made up a story (he got fired) that I was out-prepared by Vladimir Putin at a meeting in Hamburg, Germany. I don’t think Putin would agree. Look how the U.S. is doing!” Trump tweeted Thursday.
The president’s comments come after The Washington Post reported that Tillerson told the House Foreign Affairs Committee that Putin, ahead of a key meeting in Hamburg, Germany in 2017, was more prepared for the talks than Trump. A committee aide told the Post that the “discrepancy” in preparation “created an unequal footing” for the talks.
The absolutely hilarious thing to me about this story, is that apparently Donald Trump believes it would come as damaging news to anyone that he was unprepared for his meeting with Vladimir Putin...
This is a guy who can't get through more than two paragraphs of written material unless his name is is in it...
The revelation that he would be poorly prepared for a meeting with Putin (or any other foreign leader for that matter) is about as news worthy as learning that he has the world's worst comb over...
It's pretty friggin' obvious...
