Trump Says He Will Nominate an Interim Federal Reserve Governor in the Coming Days
According to Jinse Finance, Trump stated that he may nominate an interim Federal Reserve governor in the coming days to fill the vacant seat, rather than using this opportunity to reveal his preferred candidate for the next Fed chair in advance. "We may appoint an interim candidate first and then decide on a permanent one," Trump told reporters at the White House on Wednesday. "I think the interim candidate will be announced in the next two or three days, and then we will appoint a permanent candidate." Trump said he is considering "about" three candidates for the position, who may come from Wall Street. He added that Commerce Secretary Lutnick, Treasury Secretary Besant, and Vice President Vance are among the advisors involved in the process. Trump reiterated that he still regards former Fed governor Kevin Warsh and National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett as the main candidates for the chairmanship should the position become vacant.
