According to senior government officials, Federal Reserve Governor Waller and Trump had a “productive interview” about the position of Federal Reserve Chairman. The two discussed in depth the labor market and how to stimulate employment growth. The interview was held at the presidential residence and ended shortly before Trump delivered a national address on the economy on Wednesday evening. US Treasury Secretary Bezent, White House Chief of Staff Wiles, and Deputy Chief of Staff Scavino also attended the interview. Officials said BlackRock Group's Rick Riddle will be interviewed in the last week of this year at Sea-Lake Estate. They also said that Federal Reserve Governor Bowman is no longer a candidate for the position. Officials pointed out that the conversation between Waller and Trump about employment shows that concerns and criticism from the outside world — that is, the president is only looking for a candidate who will yield to his wishes on interest rates — are unfounded. They emphasized that the president covered a wide range of economic topics in his interviews with candidates.
