And then there was one. With the exception of Jim Mattis, the US defence secretary, Donald Trump has now cleared the decks of people who stand up to him. The ousting of Rex Tillerson, whose firing was announced on Twitter, eliminates the gap between Mr Trump’s anti-globalist instincts and the stance of America’s chief diplomat. Mike Pompeo, Mr Tillerson’s replacement, shares the president’s undiplomatic mindset. Mr Pompeo is a Trump enabler. Mr Trump’s America First foreign policy is now closer to becoming a reality.
现在剩下一个了。除了美国国防部长吉姆•马蒂斯(Jim Mattis)以外，唐纳德•特朗普(Donald Trump)现在已经把敢于同他对抗的一批人都清除了。特朗普在Twitter上宣布解雇雷克斯•蒂勒森(Rex Tillerson)，消除了特朗普反manbetx app苹果 主义本能与美国首席外交官立场之间的分歧。蒂勒森的接替者迈克•蓬佩奥(Mike Pompeo)与特朗普一样毫无外交思维。蓬佩奥唯特朗普马首是瞻。特朗普的“美国优先”(America First)外交政策现在更接近成为现实。
