Trump To Maria Bartiromo: ‘The Fed Is Important Psychotically’, ‘A Lot Of People Take It Out’
Once upon a time, Maria Bartiromo had a sweet gig at CNBC, the Cartoon Network of market coverage. Then, in 2013, she decided to depart for even more cartoonish pastures, jumping ship to Fox Business, where she now shills shamelessly for Donald Trump.
Earlier this year, Bartiromo sat down with the President for what would end up being one of the most hilariously absurd interviews anyone had ever witnessed. You remember that interview, right? That would be the one where Trump recounted how he
Trump just inadvertently said the most prescient thing he’s ever said: the Fed is indeed psychotic.
I know, right? that’s the best part here
Yes indeed and also the “get rid of the Fed” quip.
Clearly it is a vocabulary deficency. But then, years ago maybe they thought M3 was psychotic.
He’s a 5 yr old probably trying to say psychologically but he is too stupid to use the right word.
And yes, he is absolutely psychotic. The longer he is in the WH, the more danger he imposes on this Country.
I thought Trump was Krusty the Clown.
Donald the Clown has elbowed Krusty out of the way.
Worthless notion about teaming up Powell and Taylor, if the vice is just an ornament. Look at Yellen and Fisher. He was irrelevant and finally quit in quiet disgust. Instead, Yellen’s confidante and soul mate was always uber-dove Lael Brainard.
Brainard was expected to resign if Yellen wasn’t re-appointed, but will she reconsider if fellow dove Powell becomes chair? Hope not.
Psychologically* is likely what he meant, or should have meant. It’s the only thing that could possibly make sense.
Unless, like the commenter above noted, it was a Freudian slip of the true nature of the Fed? Ha.
