Larry Kudlow is the leading candidate to replace Gary Cohn as President Trump’s top economic adviser, CNBC’s Jim Cramer reported Monday.
Cramer, who has worked with Kudlow at the network on the show “Kudlow and Cramer,” reported that Kudlow has not been formally offered the job, but is the leading choice among the president and some of his advisers.
Kudlow declined to comment to CNBC, where he works as a senior contributor.
Cohn resigned last week amid a dispute with Trump over trade policy. The former Goldman Sachs executive — a strong supporter of free trade — said he would leave the administration after Trump committed to imposing steel and aluminum tariffs, despite pushback from U.S. lawmakers and international officials.
