Kenneth Frazier, CEO of Merck Pharmaceuticals, resigned from the President’s manufacturing council today, citing Trump’s lack of personal indignation to the events in Charlottesville as a reason.

Frazier joins Elon Musk in deciding to leave the council, which has triggered the President to attack him on Twitter.
Now that Ken Frazier of Merck Pharma has resigned from President's Manufacturing Council,he will have more time to LOWER RIPOFF DRUG PRICES!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 14, 2017
Just to recap, Frazier was a good guy up until today’s resignation. Now he presides over an evil corporation who sells drugs at ‘ripoff’ prices. Did I say ripoff? I meant to say RIPOFF.

Markets are set to surge today. I will be traveling all day, figuring out how not to fall off sides of mountains. I’ll check back in with your lads this evening.

More of them will drop out.
In reality, resignations are to be merried over. Bring them on.
“People” don’t give a shit about statues of some 1860’s Generals. The DO give a shit
about gang shootings and drug dealings, cornrowed hair, pants falling down below
their ass, long painted fingernalis that look like vulture claws, a language that is NOT
English, gold and silver shit stuck into faces and tongues and ears, a slouchy walking
gait, unlaced tennis shoes, and a super-touchy demeanor and a generally bad attitude.
Why didn’t the Merck president and Trump address THIS stuff, which pisses people off?
Don’t let the door hit you on the ass….
Yes… as I said about O’Reilly.
Strange, I don’t see an O’Reilly on that list above.
Why would he? He’s a sexual assaulting pundit.
Keep up please.
Not seeing the relevance of an alleged sexual assaulter and this story. Libfucks love to divert.
muah
Such a lame excuse from Frazier.
Sac, If Trump specifically called out the KKK, neo-nazis, white supremacists, would he lose your support? realizing you already do not support his neocon alter ego…
Trump would gain my support if he called out bad actors within the deep state. Whether Trump calls out those on the left or those on the right is not relevant:

as neither represents me or the people that don’t want to be victimized by the relentless destruction of their culture, religion, race, family, heritage and community so the hofjuden’s monopoly on creation of credit ex nihilo is not threatened by united peasants who just may wake up one day and behead these demented sociopaths. By promoting social division, self indulgence and “tolerance” i.e. miscegenation, atheism, nihilism, multiculturalism, migration, globalism, sexual “liberation” and homosexuality, the zionists and their lackeys are reducing humanity to a uniform dysfunctional and malleable mush.
CEO snowflakes of color. Bye bye.
I hope they all quit. Then the Orange President can rule over all the manufacturing in this country and impose his will as he sees fit. All these weak-minded syllable examining pin heads have nothing better to do but whine about the pathetic world they’ve created and espouse their false humility and immorality. First wipe that shit-eating grin off your faces, do a self-critique and then clean up you own cities.
Well, now if I were President of this land
You know, I’d declare total war on the pusher man
I’d cut if he stands,
And I’d shoot him if he’d run
Yes, I’d kill him with my Bible
And my razor and my gun
God damn, the pusher
God damn, the pusher
I said God damn, God damn the pusher man
The Pusher, Steppenwolf (1968)
CEO looks petty and Trump returns the pettiness.
President Donald squanders so many opportunities to look good.
There is no time for looking good.
Petty about the leader of the free world’s kkk-endorsed and embraced response to a race rally’s innocent victim of a murderous racist’s intentional vehicular homicide?!
The president doesn’t squander good opportunities to look good, he just doesn’t give a fuck and measures his success in terms of what he gets away with. He’ll always push the line until it breaks and will dog whistle his way to the closest thing possible to an auteur’s vision of a White Trump America presidency. He absolutely knew his response to this event would be globally scrutinized and shape people’s views of him, and he intentionally avoided going over it with anybody on his team. That makes him more than an idiot, but a completely irresponsible leader and selfish megalomaniac. He’s a RIPOFF president for you Trumpkins.
Intelligence Study Links Low I.Q. To Prejudice, Racism, Conservatism.
The study, published in Psychological Science, showed that people who score low on I.Q. tests in childhood are more likely to develop prejudiced beliefs and socially conservative politics in adulthood.
Kenneth, the intolerance is coming from the Left. If it keeps up, the Right will begin intolerance. Wise up.
When is Fly’s next attempt to morally equate Neo nazis with “leftists”. Can’t wait!
He’s going to wait for exodus to put out a progressive left/fascism equivalency signal
Lol!!!!!!
None of your bloggers are blogging.
Ramp Capital hasn’t blogged in 40 days, LOL.
Not a smart move in my opinion. It is too easy to demonize a drug company and high drug prices. Trump has a long memory. Look for legislation to allow the import of cheaper drugs. Most of the jackasses in congress would not oppose it for fear of losong reelection. Congratulations Mr. CEO you have cost your shareholders billions.
