I thought something similar, but then I realized, as CEO of Exxon, he may actually be "stepping down" into a less influential position when he becomes S.O.S.. So many of these international relationships are centered around oil, anyways.
He is like Trump, in that he fears no man. He is not intimidated, and can not be bought. It also seems as if he is accustomed to being under threat, so that won't be new, either.
I think Trump is putting together his team of untouchables, just like Eliot Ness.

When I initially heard his pick for SoS, I was really disappointed. I officially retract that opinion.

I agree about the untouchables, although how many were shot?

I really love this idea and I hope it's true. Now, if we can just get past Jan. 20th without any shenanigans from the outgoing administration.
