'Truly one of my worst appointments': Trump blames Biden for not firing his pick
Donald Trump on Friday called out a man the president said is "truly" one of his "worst appointments."
Trump has repeatedly prodded and attacked Fed Chair Jay Powell, whom Trump himself hired in his first term, for his purported interest rate inaction.
Ahead of the weekend, Trump slammed Powell, and blamed then-President Joe Biden for not firing Powell while Biden was in the White House.
Referring to his nickname for Powell, Trump said, "'Too Late,' and the Fed, are choking out the housing market with their high rate, making it difficult for people, especially the young, to buy a house."
"He is truly one of my worst appointments. Sleepy Joe saw how bad he was and reappointed him anyway - And the Fed Board has done nothing to stop this 'numbskull' from hurting so many people," Trump added. "In many ways the Board is equally to blame! The USA is Rockin’, there is VERY LOW INFLATION, and we deserve to be at 1%, saving One Trillion Dollars a year on Interest Costs. I can’t tell you how dumb Too Late is - So bad for our Country!"
