After a tumultuous year, President Trump finally decided today to fire Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.  Why?  Why today? What was it that finally brought this stormy relationship to its finale?  Tillerson’s referring to Trump as a “f***ing idiot” wasn’t sufficient grounds for termination.  One would think that would be enough cause for Trump to hit the eject button last year.  The White House is providing no reason for the sudden decision today.  But I have to admit its mighty strange that within hours of Tillerson slaming the Russians for their involvement in a nerve agent attack on a former Russian spy in the United Kingdom last week, he’s canned.  Poor old Rex got out ahead of the White House and issued a particularly harsh, and justified, criticism of Russia.  A few hours later, he’s history.  Think about it.  The very morning the Secretary of State of the United States of America condemns Russian for a horrific nerve gas attack in a foreign country, he is fired!  What kind of message does that send the Russians?  And this attack didn’t take place in some backwater 3rd world country.  It happened in Britain.  It happened to one of our greatest allies.  Makes me wonder again, what is it the Russians have on Mr. Trump that would cause him to so reflexively respond in accordance with their national interests.  You don’t have to be a crazy conspiracy theory nut to connect the obvious dots.
