Another CEO Resigns from President Trump’s Manufacturing Council
Another CEO has quit President Trump’s manufacturing council.
FOX’s Rachel Sutherland reports from Washington:
Scott Paul, President of the Alliance for American Manufacturing, announced he was leaving the panel, just 16 minutes after President Trump tweeted: “For every CEO that drops out of Manufacturing Council, I have many to take their place, grandstanders should not have gone on!”
Paul joins three other CEO’s of American companies who are distancing themselves from the President over his response to deadly violence that broke out at white nationalist rally in Charlottesville. Paul announced his departure on Twitter, saying it’s the “right thing to do”.
In Washington, Rachel Sutherland, FOX News.
For every CEO that drops out of the Manufacturing Council, I have many to take their place. Grandstanders should not have gone on. JOBS!

I’m resigning from the Manufacturing Jobs Initiative because it’s the right thing for me to do.
