Trump says he won't nominate Stephen Moore for the Federal Reserve Board. Mr. Moore had earlier told the WSJ he didn't plan to withdraw.
President Trump said Thursday that Stephen Moore had decided to withdraw from consideration to serve on the Federal Reserve board of governors, calling him a “great pro-growth economist and a truly fine person.”
“Steve won the battle of ideas including Tax Cuts and deregulation which have produced non-inflationary prosperity for all Americans,” Mr. Trump tweeted. “I’ve asked Steve to work with me toward future economic growth in our Country.”
