"Fed Mouthpiece": Trump's Visit to the Federal Reserve Turns Into a Political Show
According to a report by Jinse Finance, "Fed mouthpiece" Nick Timiraos wrote that Trump visited the renovation site of the Federal Reserve building on Thursday afternoon, which amounted to a political performance aimed at increasing pressure on the Fed. This is part of an unconventional campaign designed to tarnish Fed Chair Jerome Powell's public image and push for interest rate cuts. Trump's rare visit to the Fed highlights his flair for showmanship in governance. For a president who built his brand on real estate projects and reality TV, the visit provided a made-for-television moment to portray Powell—whom Trump himself appointed as Fed Chair eight years ago—as an incompetent bureaucrat overseeing a $2.5 billion renovation project plagued by cost overruns. Stifel strategist Brian Gardner noted that the focus on the Fed building's renovation could also serve to divert attention from the Epstein case.
