WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s expected pick to fill a seat on the Federal Reserve is running into significant trouble in the Senate, where Republicans have expressed skepticism over Stephen Moore’s past writings and statements about women.

“It will be a very problematic nomination,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., a close ally of Trump.

Moore, a conservative economist and commentator who served as a Trump campaign adviser, has not yet been formally nominated, though Trump has said he would be “great” on the Fed.
