Those Who'll Count In Next Trump Administration

File photo - U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer speaks as U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin and U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross listen during a meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese Vice Premier Liu He in the Oval Office of the White House February 22, 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 Alex Wong/Pool/ABACAPRESS.COM
