President Trump on Friday shot down speculation that he is looking to oust Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, calling a spate of breathless reports this week fake news.
It was the strongest statement of support yet by Mr. Trump for his top diplomat, a day after the White House would only defend Mr. Tillerson by saying he was still in the job.
�The media has been speculating that I fired Rex Tillerson or that he would be leaving soon - FAKE NEWS!� the president said via Twitter and Instragram. �He�s not leaving and while we disagree on certain subjects, (I call the final shots) we work well together and America is highly respected again!�
