Opinion: Trump has the right to publicly express his views on Powell and Fed policy

Odaily News Former U.S. Vice President Michael Pence said Donald Trump has the right to publicly share his views on Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and the central bank's interest rate decisions, and he has his own concerns about the relevant policies. "I think the president of the United States has every right to express his views on the chairman of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Reserve itself," Pence said in an interview on Thursday. "I don't really agree that the Federal Reserve should be a completely separate institution, like the College of Cardinals, which cannot be mentioned unless it is respectful and humble," Pence continued. "The president should be able to express his opinions." (Zhitong Finance)
