"President Trump announced in a Monday tweet that Herman Cain is withdrawing his name from consideration as a member of the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors, a week after Cain said he wouldn't withdraw.
"My friend Herman Cain, a truly wonderful man, has asked me not to nominate him for a seat on the Federal Reserve Board. I will respect his wishes. Herman is a great American who truly loves our Country!"
The big picture: Cain's potential nomination to the Fed already faced pushback from Republican senators due to sexual assault allegations, which he has previously denied. He told the Wall Street Journal last week, "I don't quit because of negative criticism. ... I don't quit because of negative attacks. And I don't quit because several senators have expressed reservations about my qualifications."Well, Herm, why then did you drop out? Maybe b... less

Former Massachusetts governor Bill Weld officially announced Monday that he will challenge President Trump for the 2020 Republican presidential nomination, after several months of mulling a long-shot bid that would appeal to traditional GOP voters.
Weld made the announcement in an appearance on CNN’s “The Lead With Jake Tapper,” where he described himself as “a Republican who works across the aisle and gets things done.”
“Donald Trump is not an economic conservative. He doesn’t even pretend to be. The country deserves to have some fiscal constraint and conservatism,” he said.
Weld, 73, will face a steep climb against Trump, an incumbent who is deeply popular with Republican voters. Weld last won an ele... less

I'm going to put the end of the article FIRST:
But fewer people know how Trump celebrated the first anniversary of the attacks, which he spent joking with Howard Stern about how a statue of then-girlfriend Melania might make a fitting memorial at the site of the tragedy.
At the beginning of the interview, Stern and Trump bantered about where Melania was (in bed, Trump said) and whether she was naked (Trump thought so, but he wasn’t sure).
Later, they discussed what should replace the stricken Twin Towers at the World Trade Center site.
“Maybe we should build a television tower there,” Trump suggested.
“Believe me, a statue of your girlfriend would be perfect right there,” Stern quipped.
“Well, that would be an idea,” an amused Trump replied.
Stern and co-host Robin Quivers joked that no one would fly into a statue of Melania.
