Tillerson might be a bad appointment for other reasons, but I’m not sold on the anti-science part. Petrochemical companies are pretty science heavy. He’s originally an engineer and probably had more science and engineering experience than any of our recent Secretaries of State.
Besides, State Department isn’t a strong science place either. So better to focus on his policies and abilities instead of being “anti-science.” Or at least move him out of the top 5 anti science moves.
Was there a #6 that can be promoted into the top 5 instead?
