Trump turns up heat on Fed ahead of expected rate cuts: 'It's something that they know they shouldn’t be doing.'
New comments from former President Donald Trump are turning up the political pressure on the Federal Reserve just as policy makers make it clear they are getting closer to cutting interest rates.
New comments from former President Donald Trump are turning up the political pressure on the Federal Reserve as policy makers make it clear they are getting closer to cutting interest rates.
In an interview with Bloomberg published Tuesday night, the Republican nominee again reiterated that central bank officials should not ease monetary policy before the November election.
"It’s something that they know they shouldn’t be doing," he said.
Crazy how different of a tune he sings when he is not sitting in the White House.
In 2019 he was whining about the cuts not being big enough when the rate was only 2%.
