President Trump’s Message to CEO’s Quitting the Business Advisory Councils
President Trump shuts down two of his Business Councils.
FOX’s Jon Decker has more from the White House:
With more CEO’s quitting the President’s Manufacturing Council, the President tweeting:
Rather than putting pressure on the businesspeople of the Manufacturing Council & Strategy & Policy Forum, I am ending both. Thank you all!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 16, 2017
Since the President said that “both sides” were to blame for Saturday’s deadly violence at a white supremacist rally, the CEO’s of Merck, Intel, Under Armour and Campbell’s Soup quit the Council.
Also resigning, the head of the AFL-CIO, who said he “cannot sit on a council for a President who tolerates bigotry and domestic terrorism.”
