(A Confederacy of Dunces.)
In labeling Mr. Corker “liddle,” the president was evidently returning
to a theme. He considered Mr. Corker for secretary of state during the
transition after last year’s election but was reported to have told
associates that Mr. Corker, at 5-foot-7, was too short to be the
nation’s top diplomat. Instead, Mr. Trump picked Rex W. Tillerson, who
is several inches taller but whose own relationship with the president
has deteriorated to the point that he was said to have called Mr. Trump
a “moron.”
Mr. Tillerson initially did not deny it, but later had a spokeswoman
insist he did not say it. The president, in a new interview with Forbes
magazine, said he considered it “fake news” but added that if it were
true, he would beat Mr. Tillerson in an I.Q. contest.
