WASHINGTON (May 2): President Donald Trump’s selection for the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, Stephen Moore, said he is “all in” for the central bank despite growing objections to his potential nomination among Senate Republicans. Moore said he expects Trump to formally nominate him for the Fed within about three weeks. Moore was an economic adviser to Trump’s campaign and has been a vocal supporter of his policies since he took office. “Some of the stuff about women that’s come out, this was all humorous, meant to be humorous pieces,” Moore said. “I mean you’ve got to admit, if I were on the Fed it would be a lot more fun to cover the Fed,” he said.
