is deep skepticism. someone with exxon mobile, someone with close ties and really a personal relationship with vladimir putin is the key person for this job. watch those key persons. watch what mccain says over the next few days. watch what lindsey graham says over the next few days. they seem to be telling trump don't pick this guy. they're going to have a big decision to make and that confirmation hearing will be important. the way to understand exxon is as a sovereign state in itself. as jim pointed out, he's used to going and meeting with world leaders, no doubt about it, the issues were always in the best interest of exxon, how to secure oil drilling rights around the world. he's against american sanctions on a number of states, including russia. his foreign policy, when he was running exxon often was at odds with the united states's foreign policy in a different place.
