"President Trump told reporters Friday that he still has confidence in Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Scott Pruitt amid continuing ethics and spending scandals.

Asked by CNN’s Ryan Nobles at a White House meeting with Pruitt, automaker executives and others whether he has confidence in the EPA head, Trump responded, simply, “Yes, I do.”

Pruitt was sitting two spots away from Trump at the time."
