Gary Cohn Was Set to Be the Next Fed Chairman, Then He Criticized Trump


President Trump has reportedly broadened his search for the next Federal Reserve chairman, a job once expected to go to Gary Cohn, Trump’s chief economic adviser. According to The Wall Street Journal, Cohn’s chances of getting the job diminished after the former Goldman Sachs president criticized Trump’s response to July’s white-supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.

In an August 25 interview with the Financial Times, Cohn said the “administration can and must do better in consistently and unequivocally condemning these groups.”

“Citizens standing up for equality and freedom can never be equated with white supremacists, neo-Nazis, and the KKK,” he added. “As a Jewish American, I will not allow neo-Nazis ranting ‘Jews will not replace us’ to cause this Jew to leave his job. I feel deep empathy for all who have been targeted by these hate groups. We must all unite together against them.”
