Mike Pompeo jokes about his future: I'll be secretary of state until President Trump 'tweets me out of office'
Amid speculation about his political future, Mike Pompeo on Monday said he'd be in the secretary of state role until President Donald Trump"tweets out."
"I'm going to be there until he tweets me out of office," Pompeo said, making light of Trump's penchant for firing people over Twitter. Pompeo's predecessor, Rex Tillerson, found out he had lost his job via tweet. Pompeo, speaking at a Global Entrepreneurship Summit event in his home state of Kansas, said that"at least today" he wasn't counting on losing his job.
