U.S. President Donald Trump has doubled down on his threats to cut trade with deficit countries – including Canada – of the Fed does not lower interest rates soon. “If we don't do any trading with Canada… we'd save ourselves $90 billion,” Trump told White House reporters Friday. “So what I'm saying, very simply, is that we should be paying the lowest interest rate in the world… If it weren't for us, they'd be bankrupt countries,” he added. #USpoli #POTUS #Trade #Canada #Trump
