'Tariffs don't work. If anything, they hurt the economy because if you're a typical American worker, you have a finite amount of income to spend,' Cohn said in a radio interview.
Former White House chief economic advisor Gary Cohn lashed out at some of his former colleagues, charging in an interview that the U.S. is losing the trade war as administration officials pursue a strategy that hasn't worked.
When interviewer Stephen J. Dubner suggests that all other economists except for one — Navarro — would agree on that point, Cohn said,"There's only one in the world. That we know of." Asked to confirm that it was Navarro and Ross who set up the meeting, Cohn said,"Yes. Those are the two people. When the process breaks down, then you're, sort of, in my mind, living in chaos. I don't want to live in a chaotic organization."
However, he also had several high-profile disagreements with the administration, including one point where he nearly resigned following Trump's comments on racial unrest in Charlottesville, Virginia.
