You won’t believe this, but Donald Trump has reacted to criticism with an angry morning outburst on Twitter. The president was responding to a claim made by his former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson that Russian President Vladimir Putin ran circles around Trump at a critical 2017 meeting because a “discrepancy in preparation... created an unequal footing.” Despite Tillerson being a Trump pick, the president described him Thursday morning as “a man who is ‘dumb as a rock’ and totally ill prepared and ill equipped to be Secretary of State.” He went on to say the former Exxon CEO “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!” Tillerson recounted his side of the story to members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee in a secret closed-door meeting this week.
