 The CEO of Baltimore based Under Armour says President Donald Trump is good for business.
But some have jumped on social media to criticize his comments.
George Solis has Kevin Plank’s response.
The name Kevin Plank has been all over social media for the past 24 hours.
“He’s highly passionate. To have such a pro-business president is something that’s a real asset to this country,†says Plank on Trump.
Tuesday, Plank appeared on CNBC talking about President Trump.
Just two weeks after he and other business leaders met with Mr. Trump at the White House to talk about creating more manufacturing jobs in the U.S.
Plank brought Under Armour to Baltimore and turned the sportswear apparel company into a worldwide brand.
“I’m a big fan of people that operate in the world of publish and iterate versus you know think, think, think, think,†Plank said.
But it’s his comments praising the president that triggered reaction on social media.
A number of people vowed to boycott the company.
Under Armour fired back against the criticism issuing a statement which says in part “We engage in policy, not politics.â€
