    One of the few good guys throws in the towel

    Gary Cohn says enough is enough.

    "Political extremism involves two prime ingredients: an excessively simple diagnosis of the world's ills, and a conviction that there are identifiable villains back of it all." ---John W. Gardner

    He did a lot of good and President Trump appraised him for it. He turned in a resignation like good people leave.

    He did his job, got the tax reform hammered through and now he can go back to a normal life away from all of the political garbage. Being from Goldman Sachs I am surprised the Dems did not throw him a party with Elizabeth Warren jumping out of the cake screeching at him.

    What irritated me about the article was 'It has been speculated that Mr. Cohen---. That is most of what we read anymore. Instead of cold hard facts we get 'they said, he could have, it has been speculated that, ect. Where is the who, what, when, where in the news anymore. What we get today is not news.
    Now back to the regularly scheduled program.

    Cohen had a vision for the economy that was not inline with the majority decision within the White House. He did the right thing to resign and whether or not he is right on trade tariffs will play itself out. I think this is nothing more than a power-play to get some adjustments in the NAFTA agreement

    Or my favorite "unnamed sources"! Nothing like driving public opinion by putting out a fake story with the "facts" coming from a person that con't be verified.....yet the libs fall for that like dominoes.
