The CEO of the Boy Scouts of America apologized Thursday for President Trump's politically charged speech at the organization's National Jamboree in West Virginia earlier this week. The president talked about fake news, his electoral win over Hillary Clinton and the health care debate, provoking outrage from many parents and former scouts.
