Donald Trump unveiled an economic team that’s a mirror image of the candidate and his campaign: They’re mostly outside the Republican, Wall Street and academic establishments, and they’re all men.
The lineup is heavy on aging billionaires who run their own enterprises -- just like Trump -- and includes financiers John Paulson, Andy Beal and Stephen Feinberg. Economists David Malpass, Peter Navarro and Stephen Moore are also listed as advisers to the Republican presidential candidate.
