Donald Trump made a key announcement over the weekend when he tapped Stephen Miran to become Chair of the Council of Economic Advisers.
A Harvard Ph.D. who was mentored by Ronald Reagan’s own top economic adviser, Miran has extensive experience at both Treasury and in the private sector.
Miran may not (yet) be a household name, but he has articulated many unorthodox yet compelling positions on policy topics that are central to Trump’s economic agenda.
His priorities are growth, low inflation, reinvigorating American industry, national security, and technological innovation.
With the selection of Miran, who will work alongside Scott Bessent at Treasury and Howard Lutnick at Commerce, Trump is solidifying an economic team that will implement his growth-focused economic vision.
Like Reagan’s supply-side revolution, Trump’s economic gameplan breaks with conventional thinking in many respects. But the world has changed significantly and requires bold new ideas to sustain American economic dominance.
