Joe Biden pitched a project to “Hamilton” maker Lin-Manuel Miranda on Tuesday — the narrative of his Treasury secretary pick, Janet Yellen.
“We may need to ask Lin-Manuel Miranda, who composed the musical about the main secretary of the Treasury, Hamilton, to compose another musical about the principal lady secretary of the Treasury, Yellen,” the duly elected president said at a question and answer session reporting his monetary group choice.
“So that is what I’m dealing with this moment, Janet,” Biden stated, laughing ungracefully over his own joke at the platform, as Yellen gestured and seemed to grin from behind her veil.
Yellen should in any case be affirmed by the US Senate.
