Diplomacy isn't easy ... especially if your boss is Donald Trump.

Speaking at Stanford on Wednesday, according to Vanity Fair, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson shared this fun insight into White House foreign policy:

“The challenge is just getting caught up because I don’t even have a Twitter account that I can follow what he is tweeting, so my staff usually has to print his tweets out and hand them to me,” Tillerson told [Condoleezza]Rice. Then the secretary asks himself, “How do we take that and now use it?”

Uhhh ... what? So the secretary of state just looks at print-outs of Trump's incoherent tweets and tries to turn them into something resembling coherent foreign policy?

Tillerson doesn't deserve our pity. He wasn't forced to become Trump's Twitter interpreter. But, yeah, good luck with that, Rex.
