Pompeo frustrates senators with brash defense of Trump

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo spent three hours Wednesday battling Senate Republicans and Democrats who were looking to trash President Trump's foreign policy, and showed along the way that he's comfortable with the same brash debate tactics that helped Trump get elected in 2016.

Pompeo was called before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, where members of both parties pushed him to criticize Trump's brazen style when it comes to dealing with foreign leaders. But Pompeo defended Trump's every move and comment, which led to a snippy ending in which he and Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., accused each other of political harassment.

"I've now been here three hours, and you've got a political soliloquy..." Pompeo complained in the closing minutes, prompting an interruption from Menendez.

Secretary Pompano was simply magnificent!   He ran rings around the jackasses in that room today.

He's a former Congresscritter and Director of the CIA, so when he says he knows the game they're playing, he's right.

Maybe instead of worrying about Executive foreign policy, the Senate could possibly pass some laws?
