Trump administration is perhaps the first White House administration that may be crowned with the title of “revolving door”. Of its 61 senior officials, 21 have left the Trump administration, demonstrating the highest turn over rate during the first year of any of the White House administration. Today, Gary Cohn, the Chief Economic Advisor to President Donald Trump, is also planning his exit this year, announcing his resignation.

Gary Cohn, who had once been rumored as a potential next chief of staff, will leave the White House in the wake of his fierce disagreement with the President’s decision to impose tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. “Gary has been my chief economic adviser and did a superb job in driving our agenda, helping to deliver historic tax cuts and reforms and unleashing the American economy once again. He is a rare talent, and I thank him for his dedicated service to the American people,” Trump said in a statement.

Gary Cohn was not successful in convincing President Trump to take a less aggressive position on trade (instead, Trump is imposing 25% tariff on steel and 10% tariff on aluminum). This aggressive position on tariff would undoubtedly lead to trade war and negative outcome for American manufacturers, in Cohn’s opinion.

Below, CNN reports in “Trump economic adviser Gary Cohn to resign“:

 

Gary Cohn was not happy with the direction that President Trump is heading with the tariffs. But it should not come as a  surprise to Gary Cohn because President Trump campaigned on the promise of protectionist trade policy.  Clearly, President Trump does not care what Gary Cohn or his various other national security, economic, and political advisers’ input regarding free trade or protectionist trade.
