Joe Biden on Thursday delivered remarks on the Financial Membership of Washington DC. He took a victory lap and claimed the economic system is roaring once more after the Federal Reserve lowered rates of interest.
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell this week slashed rates of interest by a whopping 50 foundation factors – that is the most important fee minimize since 2008.
In fact, the Fed’s purpose is to spice up Kamala Harris with such an aggressive fee minimize shortly earlier than the election.
Former Trump financial advisor Steve Moore stated the 50 foundation level fee minimize is election interference.
