The reports that Tillerson called Trump a fucking moron following a meeting on nuclear weapons were kind of funny.
But, I wish Lawrence O'Donnell on MSNBC and the CNN anchors would let it go already. To me, it's news that goes towards the stability of the cabinet but it's not worthy of constant repetition.
I know the inside sources gave accurate info to the reporters because Tillerson had to hold a press conference praising the president afterwards and he still didn't deny having said it (it would likely be on internal record).
So, he said it and he doesn't want to confirm or deny it. Time to move on, in my opinion. Reporters are only undermining Tillerson's credibility to keep hammering on it.
This morning on Face the Nation, Jake Tapper grilled Tillerson about it. Tillerson again said he wasn't going to confirm or deny it and that he thought it was petty.
There was some international policy information provided by Tillerson during the interview. I hope CNN focuses more on those kinds of issues moving forward.
(Edit: Tillerson was on 'State of the Union' with Jake Tapper, not 'Face the Nation')
