Top Trump Adviser to Quit After Stinging Election Defeat\u00a9\u00a0Aaron Schwartz\/Sipa\/Bloomberg\/Getty Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kevin Hassett, the smiling face of President Donald Trump\u2019s disastrous economic policy, is expected to leave his role as director of the National Economic Council.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hassett is expected to depart sometime in the next few weeks, three people familiar with his plans told Semafor<\/a> Friday. Trump\u2019s happy warrior has been eyeing different positions in the administration since well before the midterm elections, some people said.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Affordability emerged as a major issue in the recent midterm elections, where Republican candidates suffered sweeping losses, and Democrats flipped both the House and Senate. The economy has become one of Trump\u2019s worst issues; a recent poll found that 67 percent<\/a> of Americans disapproved of the president\u2019s handling of the economy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the mouthpiece for Trump\u2019s crumbling economy, Hassett lied about<\/a> lowering prices, denied<\/a> data, and, of course, blamed<\/a> everything on former President Joe Biden. And he did it all with a grin on his face<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who could hold both jobs, and his counselor David Zervos are among those being considered to replace Hassett. This news comes amid renewed calls to remove Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, this time over his alleged efforts<\/a> to shield Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and a suspected Chinese intelligence asset from scrutiny.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
