That’s the most foolish thing he said in quite a while. And that is saying quite a bit.

I keep thinking he can’t top himself. The thing is lowering interest rates is not good for investment income. Also I thought rates were fairly decent right now. The other question is will lowering interest rates mean more people being able to purchase homes? Or will it instead lead to more new homeowners who really can’t afford any cost beyond the PITI resulting in multiple foreclosures in a few years?

And can anyone tell me is there a correlation between lower interest rates and people increasing their credit card debt?

The weird thing is that many of the foolish things he says end up working or coming true. The border wall. Reducing illegal immigration to zero. Cutting taxes on tips and overtime and Socialist Security. Tariffs causing foreign manufacturers to build plants in America. Many other things.

Nothing personal but I trust Trump over some all-knowing, hand-wringing, nattering nabob of negativism FReeper.
