selection process: It's Gary's if he wants it, and I think he wants it, Politico quoted one Republican close to the selection process as saying, according to The Japan Times. A few Senate Republicans may express reservations about Cohn, but he would probably receive widespread support, a senior congressional Republican aide said, according to Politico. Politico said sources in the White House, the Treasury Department and on Capitol Hill said that if Cohn decides he wants the job, he is likely to get it. In response to a query from Reuters, White House spokeswoman Natalie Strom said, Gary is focused on his responsibilities at the NEC. Cohn, a Democrat and former Goldman Sachs president, did not work on Trump's campaign and only got to know him after the November election. She has made no secret she puts a priority on growth in jobs and wages and a broad recovery in U.S. household wealth. Yellen took over from Ben Bernanke as Fed chair in February 2014 with the U.S. economic recovery from the 2008 financial crisis still on shaky ground.
