Churn II

Rex Tillerson looked every inch the part,
and Condoleeza Rice thought he'd excel.
But Trump resents an underling who's smart;
each wished his counterpart would go to Hell.
The two brought scant credentials to their roles;
an engineer's an awkward fit at State
an insecure boss, grasping for control
were prone to clash, and not de-escalate.
Mike Pompeo's a creature of Charles Koch,
a Kansas fabricator of 'plane doors.
To head our diplomats, he'd be a joke;
he's heavily invested in more wars.
New cast can't rescue ratings for this show,
but bets are down on who's the next to go.
