Stephen Moore, Trump's embattled pick for the Federal Reserve, is getting help from a conservative-leaning public relations firm in navigating his effort to land a seat on the central bank's board
Stephen Moore, President Donald Trump's embattled pick for the Federal Reserve, is getting help from a conservative-leaning public relations firm in navigating his controversial effort to land a seat on the central bank's board.
While Moore has yet to be formally nominated, he has faced what he describes as a "sleaze campaign" of negative stories, including reports about unpaid taxes owed to the IRS and a messy divorce settlement. Reporters have also unearthed sexist commentary in which he complained about female professional athletes being paid more than male collegiate players and suggested that women should be excluded from refereeing.
Democrats have piled on, with Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Friday demanding that Moore disclose more details on his ties to advocacy groups and potential conflicts of interest if he were appointed to the Fed. On Friday, the firm circulated to reporters a list of conservatives who touted Moore's appointment on Twitter after data released earlier in the day showed economic growth exceeded expectations in the first quarter.
