We'd also save a trillion dollars by not spending more than $1 trillion over budget every year.
It's closer to $2 trillion overall. We spend $1 trillion on debt interest and we're still $1 trillion over budget if we had no debt.

What reason is there to cut rates with good job reports
We believe the BLS now? Inflation is below 2%. Jerome cut last year with the same data if not worse than this data
How is he not playing politics
We are over restricted by 1%. Other Fed member jockeying for the job agree
Too late spent 2.5bill on furniture. Needs to resign

Trump says the U.S. would "save" $3 trillion dollars if only the Fed would lower Fed funds rates by 3%.
You would think President Trump would know, after 5+ decades of studying interest rates as a real estate developer, that, 1) the Fed is not mandated the responsibility of managing fiscal policies or fiscal results, and 2) lowering overnight interest rates, which is what Fed Funds are, does not result in the direct correlation of changes in treasury security rates.
In fact, lowering FF rates so drastically might even result in investors bidding for higher treasury yields.
I'm disappointed that The Donald ignores those facts.

True, and we have pretty recent history to back that since the autumn of 2024

It's only right if you believe a snake oil salesman who runs a voo-doo economics website.
The same guy who was forced out of the company he founded by his own board of directors who he hired.
You can keep repeating a lie but it will still be a lie.

It's a valid reason to NOT trust anything that crackpot claims about financial issues.
You can't even describe what his method is for computing his imaginary inflation rate. He doesn't disclose it.

So you acknowledge that Trump's demand to reduce rates by 3% is misguided and should be ignored?

Why would we lower rates with the economy supposedly humming along
Because its costing us an extra 900 billion to service the debt.

The law imposes two mandates on the Fed: 1) Price stability, while, 2) maintaining full employment.

I'm willing to bet you can't produce a single statistic which indicates sound reasoning that overnight bank lending interest rates should be reduced based on current economic or financial data.
Go ahead, post another emoji as your response...

And therefore, while you believe both are wrong, you think Powell is more correct than Trump, being you’re only separate from Powell by 1% and from Trump by 2%.

Sure. But the Fed chair who is supposed to be unbiased isnt
Hes hurting the country. He cut 1% last year with worse data
