Trump presses for lower rates, accuses Fed of political bias
Former President Trump renewed his push for easier monetary policy, saying the Fed shouldn’t let strong data deter rate cuts and accusing officials of politics-driven decisions. He praised Warsh, argued rate reductions are needed to sustain growth and ease debt costs, and contrasted U.S. rates with Switzerland’s near-zero levels as the Treasury steps up a long‑term bond buyback program amid persistent inflation above the 2% target.
