President-elect Donald Trump Wednesday named billionaire investor Carl Icahn a special adviser for regulatory reform — a post for which he would not be paid nor would be required to give up any business dealings.
"Carl was with me from the beginning — and with his being one of the world's great businessmen, that was something I truly appreciated," Trump said in announcing his choice. "He is not only a brilliant negotiator, but also someone who is innately able to predict the future especially having to do with finances and economies.
"His help on the strangling regulations that our country is faced with will be invaluable."
