One day after former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson gave a blistering assessment of Donald Trump—calling him an “undisciplined” man who “doesn’t like to read”—the president clapped back.
“Mike Pompeo is doing a great job, I am very proud of him.

He was lazy as hell. Now it is a whole new ballgame, great spirit at State!”
