THE TRUMP-COHN BROMANCE IS OFFICIALLY OVER
The president has been
making furtive phone calls to Steve Bannon as he fumes over his
economic adviser.
Unfortunately, like many
Trump romances, this one has hit the skids. Trump quickly proved to
be the sort of undisciplined employee who would’ve been fired from
Goldman Sachs on day one. He withdrew the United States from the
Paris climate agreement, despite Cohn’s protestations. The breaking
point was Charlottesville: Cohn was said to be “disgusted” and
“dismayed” at his boss’s characterization of a group containing
neo-Nazis as having some “very fine people,” and, after two weeks
of stewing, let his thoughts be known in an interview with the
Financial Times, wherein he condemned the president’s equivocating.
Not surprisingly, it did not go over well....
