Larry Kudlow insists that controversial Trump picks Herman Cain and Stephen Moore are still in the running to join the board of the Federal Reserve.
President Donald Trump's top economic advisor, Larry Kudlow, said Tuesday that the White House is"talking to a number of candidates" to fill two open seats on the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, while insisting that controversial Trump picks Herman Cain and Stephen Moore are still in the running.
Critics also say the two men are too politically biased toward Trump to serve on the independent Fed board. GOP Sens. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Cory Gardner of Colorado and Utah's Mitt Romney have also said they would vote against Cain.
