Union Pacific executives denied private discussions with President Trump about a 15% government stake in a proposed merger with Norfolk Southern, despite Trump's public claims. The $85 billion railroad merger faces regulatory review, and Union Pacific's CFO stated the company had no such conversations with Trump, which surprised executives.
