President Donald Trump fired Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Tuesday.
Trump then told reporters they differed on various issues. Then the president said they differed on the Iran Deal which Tillerson supported and Trump did not.
President Trump: Rex and I have been talking about this for a long time. We got along quite well but we disagreed on things. When you look at the Iran deal. I think it’s terrible. I guess he thought it was OK. I wanted to either break it or do something and he felt a little bit differently. actually got along well with Rex. Really it was a different mindset. It was a different thinking.
In January Rex Tillerson told reporters the US was trying to stay in the Iranian deal.
Trump must have disagreed with this assessment.
