Trump and his allies are crying “election interference” over the Federal Reserve’s decision to slash interest rates

After months of complaining about the crippling burden of high interest rates and expensive borrowing, Republicans for some strange reason don’t seem too happy that the Federal Reserve has moved to do something about it.

On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve announced it is cutting interest rates by half a percentage point. It’s the first cut since 2020 and a long-awaited decrease to historically high interest rates.

      Interest rates didn’t disrupt supply chains and lead to price gouging though

        price gouging was taking advantage of the intrinsic infaltion and supply chains were strained more by demand brought about by cheap money.
