The low pay is starting to reveal itself in shoddy journalism. Rex Tillerson has spent much of his life cutting deals with despots for big oil projects. He was against the US-led sanctions on Russia, because it interfered with his ability to make a profit.  He has several hundred million dollars worth of ExxonMobil shares. It is laughable that he is even being considered for this role, but then again, Americans elected a narcissistic, racist, demagouge, sociopathic buffoon for president.
