Today's other shoe

Trump's advisory councils disband after his remarks on Charlottesville.

From the Washington Post:

President Trump’s relationship with the American business community suffered a major setback on Wednesday as the president was forced to shut down his major business advisory councils after corporate leaders repudiated his comments on the violence in Charlottesville this weekend.

A slew of corporate chieftans announced they were resigning from the councilsl in recent days after they said Trump was slow to condemn white supremacy groups.

On Twitter, Trump said it was his decision to disband both councils. “Rather than putting pressure on the businesspeople of the Manufacturing Council & Strategy & Policy Forum. I am ending both,” he tweeted.

"I disbanded them.".... or, as the CEOs on the committees all said, "I quit".

Of course, to admit that they all quit is a failure on his part. To say he disbanded the committees (which had nobody in them, since they all quit), makes it look like it was his decision, so his supporters think he's "a good strong leader", even though he's anything but....
