    File photo - United States Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and Mrs. Claire Lighthizer arrive for the State Dinner hosted by United States President Donald J. Trump and First lady Melania Trump in honor of Prime Minister Scott Morrison of Australia and his wife, Jenny Morrison, at the White House in Washington, DC on Friday, September 20, 2019. As the U.S. trade representative during President-elect Donald Trump’s first term, Lighthizer was the architect of the United States’ aggressive use of tariffs and other trade restrictions against friend and foe alike, abandoning decades of U.S. support for free trade. His trade policy revolution was subsequently embraced and expanded by the Biden administration. Lighthizer may now be on the short list for a key economic post come January, with treasury secretary mentioned as one possibility. Photo by Ron Sachs/Pool via CNP/ABACAPRESS.COM
