Secretary of State Rex Tillerson appeared on CNN's State of the Union Sunday with host Jake Tapper. In their conversation, Tillerson again sidestepped reports that he privately called President Trump a "moron" earlier this year. "I call the president 'Mr. President,'" he deflected. "At the end of the day, he makes decisions. I go out and try to implement those decisions."
The diplomat also responded to comments from Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) published Friday saying Trump has "publicly castrate[d]" Tillerson by undercutting his diplomatic efforts. "You have a cattle ranch — you don't want to say anything about the senator suggesting you've been gelded before the world?" Tapper asked. "I checked; I'm fully intact," Tillerson replied.
