WASHINGTON: Secretary of State Rex Tillerson denied Wednesday he had considered resigning from Donald Trump’s cabinet and dismissed a report that he had called the president a “moron” as “petty nonsense.”
“The vice president has never had to persuade me to remain as secretary of state because I have never considered leaving this post,” Tillerson said, denying an NBC News report.
