.Chao rebuffs Trump critics in Davos: ‘Those who don’t want to listen to him can leave’
Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao had a clear message Wednesday for critics of President Donald Trump during his trip to the World Economic Forum in Switzerland: If you don't want to hear from him, you can leave.
Speaking at a panel with other U.S. government officials during the World Economic Forum in Davos, the secretary praised the president for engaging with global leaders on economic policy by becoming the first sitting president in nearly two decades to attend the annual gathering of the world's wealthy elite.
“Davos should feel very flattered that he has chosen this as a forum,” Chao said during a session moderated by The Wall Street Journal. “Those who don’t want to listen to him can leave.”
Pressed on whether the gathering — known to attract the so-called globalists derided by some factions of the Republican Party — aligned with the president’s populist economic rhetoric, Chao defended the summit as a unique opportunity for world leaders to gather and exchange ideas.
