Whatever happened to....?

In case you were wondering, UC (really UC-Irvine) appears to have lost its one contact with the Trump administration. UC-I Professor Peter Navarro* - an economic adviser to the Trump campaign and then a White House appointee - is characterized by the LA Times as a former UC-Irvine professor.** Yours truly checked it out and he is indeed listed as a professor-emeritus. He has now been promoted to "assistant to the president," according to the Times.
