Moreon Trump’s demand for lower rates – “I know interest rates much better than” the Fed

I posted on Trump’s shrill insistence earlier:

Trump spoke to the World Economic Forum in Davos via video link:

  • “With oil prices going down, I’ll demand that interest rates
    drop immediately, and likewise they should be dropping all over
    the world,”

Adding a little more now, from further comments made by Trump at the White House:

  • “I think I know interest rates much better than they do, and I
    think I know it certainly much better than the one who’s
    primarily in charge of making that decision,”

Trump wants to fire Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.
