The trend was not good for the Pres. Trump potential nominee
The headwinds for Moore became too hard and he has withdrawn his name for consideration as a Federal Reserve Board member.
As early as this morning, Moore was saying he was "All in". The response from that final play was probably not that great. So he is "All out".
Overall, it is not a bad idea to bring some diversity in thought to the Fed. However, the baggage that Moore brought with him was just too littered with poor choices.
