Wall Street big shot Steven Mnuchin’s name is being mentioned as a possible Secretary of the Treasury in the upcoming Trump administration.
Scratch that: his name isn’t just being thrown around as the Treasury pick. Minutes ago the New York Timesreported it’s going to happen — possibly as soon as tomorrow.
The Old Gray Lady calls Mnuchin “a financier with deep roots on Wall Street and in Hollywood but no government experience.”
We noted on May 5 that Mnuchin was a curious choice for finance chairman of Trump’s campaign. (And, sorry, I still have no idea how to pronounce Mnuchin. Maybe Man-oo-kin? Man-oo-chin?)
