Editor,
I’m impressed with Reserve Chair Jerome Powell for standing up to Trump and not lowering interest rates. It was the right thing to do. I guess it’s safe to say Mr. Powell is not a Republican. Too bad Republican senators couldn’t do the same.

The Federal Reserve’s track record predicting interest rates is about 50%. Since all their decisions are based on their interest rate prediction, they are no better than random.
The Federal Reserve's track record predicting interstate rates is about 50-50. So any decision they make based on their guess of future interest rates is also random.
Mr. Nice - instead of copying leftist talking points, why don't you explain why Trump and Powell disagree on the appropriate interest rate. That would help the readers of the DJ. Instead, we get another, pointless TDS outburst
Thanks for your letter, Mr. Nice. I assume you’re also impressed with Dems and their political theatre, including swearing, dancing, ranting, and raving and their supporting biological men competing against biological women. And with Dems attempting to provide sanctuary for criminals crossing our borders, attempting to force a tremendous tax hike on all Americans, and their continued demonizing of ICE and law enforcement. Unfortunately for you, patriots elected our (yes, our) great President Trump into office again because of his common sense and make America great again policies. Too bad so-called Democrat leaders, not just senators, can’t do the same.
