[Trump Says U.S. Interest Rates Should Be Cut Below 1%, Urges Fed to Lower Rates Quickly] Jin10 News, September 17 – U.S. President Trump stated on social media that U.S. interest rates should be reduced to 1% or lower, citing that the U.S. has the strongest credit in the world and that the current economy is attracting significant new investment. Trump claimed that if the U.S. stopped trading with countries with which it has a trade deficit, it could gain at least $1.5 trillion annually. He stated that a 'deficit' essentially means a 'loss' and argued that the U.S. can no longer bear the cost of global trade in the long term. Trump once again urged the Federal Reserve to quickly lower interest rates, asserting that reducing borrowing costs would help boost the U.S. economy.
