Donald Trump

President Trump fired a fresh broadside at the Federal Reserve for raising interest rates last year, saying the economy is in good shape “despite the unnecessary and destructive actions” taken by the central bank.

President Trump’s top economic adviser said the president stands by his choice of Stephen Moore for an open seat on the Federal Reserve Board despite recent reports about the possible nominee’s failure to fully pay taxes and alimony.

President Trump blasted the central bank for “mistakenly’’ raising interest rates and for a “ridiculously timed’’ reduction in its balance sheet.

Stephen Moore, who Donald Trump may nominate for a seat on the Federal Reserve Board, said the central bank should immediately reverse course and lower interest rates by half a percentage point.

Donald Trump said he’s nominating Stephen Moore, a visiting fellow at the Heritage Foundation and a long-time supporter of the president, for a seat on the Federal Reserve Board.

President Donald Trump expressed hope the Federal Reserve had finished raising interest rates.
