'A lot of cocktails': Pompeo mocks John Kerry for 'fancy' trips to foreign countries

NATIONAL HARBOR, Maryland — Secretary of State Mike Pompeo mocked one of his predecessors for what he described as a lavish lifestyle, including trips to foreign countries funded by American taxpayers.

"You should know that different secretaries kind of roll different. I’m not in it, I'm not in it for the fancy dinners in Paris or Switzerland or Vienna," Pompeo said during a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday.

"One of my predecessors went 62 times," he added, referencing former Secretary of State John Kerry.
