Trump likes Herman Cain, but enough Republicans don't to block his appointment

Although Pres. Trump said of Herman Cain, "I just like the guy a lot," 4 Republican senators said they will vote "no" on Herman Cain's appointment to the Federal Reserve, effectively sinking his chance of being confirmed as the head of the Federal Reserve Board. Senators Mitt Romney (R-Utah), Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), Cory Gardner (R-Colo.) and Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.), who all said they would vote against him. Cain, a former fast food executive (he owned Godfather's Pizza) reportedly planned to turn down the nomination.  It appears to save face, he may have not other choice.
