In other news, for those who aren't paying attention (which as usual is most) and those who haven't been told what to think yet (which seems to be all)....
Our inept, incompetent and unfit President nominated Stephen Moore to a seat on the Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board is arguable the most important policy making body that impacts our economy. It is not a place for lightweights. Members of the board earn nomination after a lifetime's devotion to the study and implication of monetary policy. It is a place that should be "packed" with non-partisan elites. Any normal person would want only the smartest and wisest people sitting on the Federal Reserve Board.
Stephen Moore, like most of Trumps' nominees, is a joke. He does not have PhD in econ. He has never taught econ. He has never done any actual economic research. He has not published any studies or books on actual economics. He's never submitted any work thru an academic or peer review process. He is a political hack. That is all Stephen Moore is.
Don't believe me? Then take Moore's own words. This moron went on TV after his nomination to discuss it:
Swift Pushback on Stephen Moore, Trump's Latest Pick for the Fed
WTF!? A seat on the Federal Reserve is not a place for on the job training. Moore admits he knows nothing about the Fed or monetary policy. It is actually nice that he said that...irrelevant as anyone who actually does know anything about monetary policy knows Stephen Moore is nothing but a political hack.
Oh...additionally it was announced yesterday that China is buying 300 planes from Airbus. I guess Boeing and the workforce around Seattle can be added to the growing numbers who can thank President Trump for harming their business and job prospects with his asinine trade wars.

“I’m kind of new to this game, frankly, so I’m going to be on a steep learning curve myself about how the Fed operates, how the Federal Reserve makes its decisions,” Moore, 59, said on BTV. “It’s hard for me to say even what my role will be there, assuming I get confirmed.”
