After critics blasted Donald Trump last week for unveiling a roster of 13 economic advisers without any women, the Republican nominee has added nine new members -- eight of which are female.

The Trump campaign announced the additions Thursday and said the move was meant to show "a commitment to adding diverse thoughts to the Trump/Pence campaign."

The first slate of 13 advisers was named on August 5. Most members of the all-male team were primarily involved in real estate and finance.

When pressed about the lack of diversity, two of those economists -- David Malpass and Peter Navarro -- told CNN on Sunday that women would be added.
