- Kudlow accepts job of White House National Economic Council director, replaces Gary Cohn. (Fox News) — Conservative commentator and former Reagan administration official Larry Kudlow has accepted the job of White House National Economic Council director, replacing Gary Cohn, Fox News has learned. President Trump offered Kudlow the job just one week after Cohn resigned from his post as the president’s chief economic adviser, a senior administration official told Fox News.
- New economic adviser Larry Kudlow has clashed with Trump on tariffs and more. Kudlow did moderate his criticism of Trump’s tariffs decision before the president’s decision to pick him as adviser. “It’s a Trumpian way of negotiating,” Kudlow said of the tariffs announcement in a radio interview this weekend. “You knock them in the teeth and get their attention. And then you kind of work out a deal, and I think that’s what he’s done. My hat’s off to him. He had me really worried. Now I’m not.”
