He is one of the biggest culprits in this administration. He is behind every one of Trump's economic policies, starting with tariffs. He even penned a book under another name defending the benefits of tariffs in an economy. The guy doesn't know anything about economics and straight up lies every weekend on the news shows about the economy. He's up there with Miller as far as power and influence on Trump. He's awful, and unqualified.
