yes but president trump chose this moment and that the story broke just hours after mr tillotson returned from africa of course paints a very bad picture i mean this says to the leaders in africa that mr tillotson met that they wasted time with someone who was already something like a dead man walking in the trumpet ministration and to listen this mission in africa was to mend fences with african leaders after the president had reportedly called african nations a shithole countries so this really paints a bad picture so it was very surprising that trump did it now in fact that mr tillotson would not stay for much longer that was an open secret here in washington but once again this timing really surprises. so who is mike pump aoa stay with us as we take a look at the new man at foggy bottom. polling in the presence of your state was just over a year ago when mike compay was appointed head of the cia at the time and the kansas congressman was a member of the house intelligence committee so now the fifty four year old is set to take over at the state department replacing rex tillerson first
