The president of a manufacturing association has become the fourth executive to walk away from President Trump after he took two days to denounce white supremacy. Scott Paul, head of the Alliance for American Manufacturing, quit Trump's manufacturing council on Tuesday. The group, which Trump established in January with about two dozen members, is supposed to meet occasionally to offer the president advice on job growth. Trump said on Twitter that he has other CEOs ready to step in and that "grandstanders" should not have joined the manufacturing council in the first place. After neo-Nazis and white supremacists brawled with counter-protesters in the streets of Charlottesville on Saturday, Trump spoke against violence "on many sides -- on many sides."
