Trump makes everything political and about him. The Federal Reserve should not be subject to politics. He should shut up and leave it alone.
BREAKING: Trump has discussed firing Federal Reserve chief Jerome Powell as his frustration has intensified after this week’s interest-rate increase and months of stock-market losses.
Advisers close to Trump aren’t convinced he will try to do it, but say he wants to.
