Trump’s Threats and Attacks Are Backfiring As 4th CEO Quits His Manufacturing Council

Donald Trump claimed threatened the CEOs on his manufacturing council that they could be easily replaced. After Trump made his threat, a fourth CEO quit.

Trump tweeted:

After his tweet, Scott Paul, the president of the Alliance for American Manufacturing quit his council:

The reason for Paul’s resignation can be found elsewhere in his Twitter stream, as he previously had retweeted SEn. Sherrod Brown’s (D-OH) retweet of Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) calling the attack in Charlottesville domestic terrorism.

The CEOs leaving Trump’s manufacturing council is clearly getting under the President’s skin.

Trump’s bluster and threats aren’t working. For those within the White House who still believe in the power of Trump’s Twitter account the fact that Trump attacks aren’t keeping CEOs in the council sends a devastating message that the only power they thought this president still had is rapidly diminishing.

Donald Trump has discovered that he fails when he tries to bully Congress, and now he is failing as tries to bully America’s CEOs. Trump is so completely toxic that there are a growing number of CEOs who don’t want to be seen with him.

With his threats failing and his bluster ignored, Donald Trump is well on his way to becoming America’s most impotent president.
