Bannon vs. Tillerson. Who would have thought? The CEO of Exxon in the cabinet seemed like the worst thing ever (I still don’t condone or support it) but then the rest of the internal staff became public.

Tillerson is on the other side of the table, as an engineer and the 41 year veteran of Exxon, I am glad to have that voice in our corner.
