WASHINGTON ― Three CEOs on the White House manufacturing council resigned in protest Monday over President Donald Trump’s botched response to a deadly white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. “In Dow there is no room for hatred, racism, or bigotry,” said Dow Chemical CEO Andrew Liveris. Lockheed Martin CEO Marillyn Hewson, Corning CEO Wendell Weeks, and Harris Corp. CEO Bill Brown declined to comment. A representative for Scott Paul, president of the Alliance for American Manufacturing, said he was traveling and unavailable to comment. “Ford does not have a representative on the manufacturing council,” Michael Levine, a Ford spokesman, told HuffPost.
