The AP is reporting as of now: WASHINGTON (AP) The White House says reports that President Donald Trumps chief economic adviser is stepping down are 100 percent false.

The rumor is spreading that Gary Cohn, President Trumps chief economic adviser is resigning, due to conflict concerning the Charlottesville tragedy.
However, the AP says it is not true.
BUT there is speculation that President Trump has floated the possibility of nominating Cohn to chair the Federal Reserve.
There is even an article in VANITY FAIR that speculates that is Cohns goal, and it has been his Plan B from the beginning of the crisis within the Trump Administration.

Fake news again
I don’t even know who he is...sick of the Fake News though.
The more egregious articles are trying to create a rift between Mike Pence and Trump. That bothers me.
NO!
I hope he doesn’t resign. We don’t need the libs putting yet another feather in their caps.
Cohn stabbed Trump in the back. Trump should fire his a$$.
I wish this guy would go actually, they call him carbon tax Cohn wanna guess why? The worst people in the administration seem to be the most entrenched McMaster Cohn & Powel meanwhile Bannon seems like he’s always hanging by a thread.
Aren’t we supposed to hate him?
I don’t even know at this point.
Cohn, I don’t know much about. I do know Wall Street likes the appearance of stability he seems to invoke in the administration. They like that Cohn is likely to push for tax cuts sometime this year.
Someone who needs to be monitored is McMasters.
He is being allowed to remove several people loyal to Bannon.
McMasters may be yet another showboat who does not have our president’s interests or legacy at heart.
Just so you know; John McCain ‘likes’ McMasters.
I know that we are supposed to hate McMaster. I thought we were supposed to hate Cohn too.
It’s odd how many Cabinet members and White House staff we are supposed to hate.
Hate is a dangerous use of energy, one that is easily wasted on what may be the wrong targets. My ‘Hate’ is not like buckshot, that scatters pellets in a general direction. My ‘hate’ or venom of opinion is usually more like a rifle shot, flying straight out of the barrel at high velocity and aimed at a specific target. I don’t want to waste too many of my bullets. Maybe that is what’s meant by the expression ‘Keep your powder dry.”
