President Donald Trump pushed Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to lower interest rates at their first in-person meeting since the president’s inauguration, the White House said.
The president told Powell that he believes the Fed chair is making a mistake by not lowering rates, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said at a briefing Thursday.
That “is putting us at an economic disadvantage to China and other countries, and the president’s been very vocal about that, both publicly and, now I can reveal, privately,” she added.
