WASHINGTON President Donald Trumps 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 Moores 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.
