Major companies that still have representatives in the council: GM, Blackrock, BCG, Walmart, Boeing, Pepsi, IBM, GE, Dow, Dell, Whirlpool, Ford, Johnson&Johnson, Lockheed Martin, US Steel, 3M, Corning Everyone who has left: Uber(Travel Ban and #DeleteUber), Disney(Paris withdrawal), Tesla/SpaceX(Paris Withdrawal). And now Merck, Under Armour and Intel(all left after failure to condemn white supremacists)

Edit: For anyone who wonders what the heck I was talking about, the parent comment originally said "Everyone who's left" - and I honestly was not sure which it meant.

The first para is those that are left, hence the latter is those that have left.

Glad to hear that a lot these CEOs are resigning. To be honest, the council is most likely better off without them as a lot of these big corporations favor offshore outsourcing and profit immensely from payroll/labor arbitrage.

> payroll/labor arbitrage

Or as it's known outside of academia, "business."

"A house divided against itself cannot stand." -- Abraham Lincoln Pretty worrying to observe the polarization in the US where IMO both left and right are full of extremist views and moderates have no audible voice.

I think more people need to resign from such positions. Good on Krzanich.

They do: https://www.cnbc.com/2017/08/14/merck-ceo-resigns-from-trump...

Thanks. I heard about that. I am not sure how much resigning will help, but it needs to be done.

This is not a "both sides" issue, never has been.

It seems there are two separate Trump councils:

* Manufacturing council: http://uk.businessinsider.com/trump-manufacturing-council-wh...

* Business advisory council: http://uk.businessinsider.com/who-is-on-trump-business-advis... (older article)

Pepsi, Walmart, IBM and others are on the later. Also, it seems some companies have left quietly, where the individual has left the company and the company has not appointed a new person.
