Closter's Kloster's nomination comes as the Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern is set to refile today their 85 billion, $85 billion merger with the Surface Transportation Board.

Trump's putting people on the board who are so, so obescent to industry that he's going to raise your costs. (08:05–08:18)
