Glenn Hubbard, the top economic adviser to Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign, accused Tim Geithner of “lying” in a forthcoming memoir about a private discussion on tax increases they had during the 2012 race, Politico reports.
Hubbard said Geithner “fabricated a claim in the book that Hubbard endorsed raising taxes in a conversation the two men had in early 2012 at an Economic Club of New York dinner.”
