His father? Anywho, I doubt if this guy is his son. He is related though. Ty Cobb, the baseball player is DEAD and gone. But some guy being named after a noted racist, does not bode well.
President Donald Trump plans to put a veteran Washington lawyer, Ty Cobb, in charge of overseeing the White House's legal and media response to investigations into Russian meddling in the 2016 campaign.
Top administration officials want someone to enforce discipline in the White House regarding Russia matters -- and that includes the president, who frequently vents his frustrations about the investigations on Twitter, a White House official said. The official requested anonymity because Cobb's hiring hasn't been announced.
An email sent to Cobb at the firm Hogan Lovells, where he is a partner, was answered with an automatic reply that said he's traveling and has limited access to voicemail and email.
Cobb will be the central in-house figure on matters related to the investigations into Russian interference in the election and the Trump campaign's possible involvement, working closely with Trump's outside legal team led by Marc Kasowitz and John Dowd.
