Fed Ignores Trump's Twitter Tantrums, Opts for Boredom Instead
By Vixen Vile, Published 4 hours ago
Ah, the Federal Reserve, those dreary, fuddy-duddies in their ivory towers, have once again chosen to ignore the golden-haired tantrum-throwing toddler in the White House. Instead of slashing rates to fund his next round of golfing excursions or his hair piece maintenance, they're sticking to their "patient approach." Apparently, watching paint dry is more stimulating than Trump's tweets.
One would think the Fed might throw a bone to the man whose ego is larger than the national debt. But no, they're too busy contemplating the economic ramifications of... wait for it... *tariffs*. Because nothing says "global economic influence" like making sure that the price of imported cheap trinkets stays just out of reach.
So here we are, with the economy in the hands of a group more interested in playing Monopoly than managing the world's financial well-being. Meanwhile, Trump's hands are full with his phone, sending out policy via 280 characters. The suspense is killing us. Will the Fed blink? Or will they just keep on not doing anything interesting? One thing's for sure, in this game of chicken, the Fed might just be the only one with actual backbone.
