Trump Considers Fox Business Host Larry Kudlow for Treasury or NEC Amid Lutnick-Bessent Rivalry
Nov 15, 2024, 04:39 PM
According to the Wall Street Journal, former President Donald Trump is considering tapping Fox Business Network host Larry Kudlow for a senior economic policy role in his administration, potentially as the head of the Treasury Department or the National Economic Council (NEC). Kudlow's stock has risen amid a "cold war" between other leading candidates for senior economic roles, including billionaire Cantor Fitzgerald CEO Howard Lutnick and investor Scott Bessent. Trump is reportedly unhappy with the battle between Lutnick and Bessent and is considering other candidates such as Kudlow, former U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, and Apollo's Marc Rowan.
