On Monday morning, President Trump went on a tirade on against Kenneth C. Frazier, chief executive of Merck, the pharmaceuticals giant.
Mr. Frazier, one of the nation's most prominent African-American chief executives, had announced through his company's Twitter account that he was resigning from the president's American Manufacturing Council in response to Mr. Trump's refusal over the weekend to immediately and directly condemn the white supremacists and neo-Nazis carrying swastika flags in Charlottesville, Va.
Mr. Trump had blamed the bigotry and violence which left one anti-bigotry protester dead "on all sides."
Was he planning to quit the council regardless?
Trump Tweeted :Now that Ken Frazier of Merck Pharma has resigned from President's Manufacturing Council,he will have more time to LOWER RIPOFF DRUG PRICES!
Looking forward to prices' reduction on medications by any means. Now he will have the time to do so. Just a thought.
