      And people still thinks he is playing some sort of 4D chess. My friend in Georgia mentioned that people around her says Trump is creating a dip, so that federal reserve will lower interest rate.

      Yes, because president can fire tons fedral workers, can send secret police to abduct people, but cannot control the federal reserve, and have to play stagnation or bust.

        One of the talking heads on one of those business news shows summed up the theory about lowering interests rates as “it’s like burning down the house to cook a steak.”

        There’s no plan here, it’s just a deranged old man surrounded by sycophants doing all of the things people previously told him wouldn’t work.
