Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Monday that transgender people should not be discriminated against ― a view in direct contradiction to several policies proposed under the Trump administration.

Tillerson's comment was part of a statement issued to acknowledge Transgender Day of Remembrance, an annual observance held Nov. 20 to honor the memory of those killed by anti-trans violence.

"Transgender persons should not be subjected to violence or discrimination," he said, "and the human rights they share with all persons should be respected."

I wasn't being political, as I didn't take sides, just reported. The point is that he's probably not like trump at all. It's easy to guilt by association, but if I was asked to serve in such a capacity, even though I might disagree with a particular administration on some points, ultimately I'd be serving the country and if I have a different POV than my boss, that might be a good thing. Tribal thinking is rife with contradictions and fallacies.
