While the Left tries to shoot him down, Donald Trump is forging ahead with a campaign focused on key policies.
By focusing on the themes that got his name painted on the side of barns across America in 2016, Trump is focusing on forgotten men and women across the nation.
Trump campaigned on the promise that he would “drain the swamp” in Washington D.C.
But the shark infested waters of the nation’s capital proved tricky to navigate during one term in the White House.
Despite numerous huge wins, Trump has admitted there are some things he will do differently if he’s elected in 2024.
One regret Trump expressed during a recent Fox News interview was appointing Jay Powell as Federal Reserve Chairman.
Powell replaced Janet Yellen, whose policies had already proven to be a disaster.
During an appearance with Fox Business host—and former top economic advisor—Larry Kudlow, Trump shared what he’ll do differently if given a second chance.
“I would not reappoint him,” Trump said, referring to Powell. “I thought he was always late, whether it was good or bad but he was always late.”
“I was surprised he was reappointed,” Trump added. “Probably he got reappointed because they knew I didn’t like him much.”
Powell was the administration official publicly claiming that skyrocketing inflation was merely a “transitory” phenomenon.
Powell also empowered Joe Biden’s wild endless spending sprees as soon as he got in office, which included billions in waste buying more vaccines, expiring covid tests, and personal protective equipment than the nation could possibly use.
That put skyrocketing inflation into hyperdrive, building on past Federal Reserve chairmens’ irresponsible print, borrow, and spend policies.
Powell’s current project involves pushing the economy off a cliff and into a deep recession by increasing interest rates in an effort to end the inflationary cycle he helped nurture in the first place.
During his interview with Kudlow, Trump hammered Powell over slowing economic growth by keeping interest rates artificially high.
“I felt he was not good, in fact I was very tough on him. If I wasn’t I think we would have had much higher interest rates for much longer,” Trump noted. “We had a boom, and it was primarily, one time it looked like I was going to come down on him very hard and he dropped them so much that it was like, it was, he dropped them so much at one time.”
The Federal Reserve was created in 1913 and has been helping enrich big banks and Wall Street titans ever since by continuously printing new money they get their hands on first.
But that same system allows central bankers to create boom and economic cycles that devastate middle class American families.
The Wall Street types know that.
And so do many Americans.
In fact, taking on the Federal Reserve system is a key reason former Republican Congressman and two-time presidential candidate Dr. Ron Paul inspired so many young Americans during his presidential campaigns.
