Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : "There's virtually unanimity among economists that monetary independence from political interference, that the Fed or any Central Bank be able to do the job that it needs to, is really important," Goolsbee said.
24% : Trump, in a post on Truth Social, attacked Powell and claimed energy costs and food prices are "substantially lower" and that there is "virtually No Inflation." "With these costs trending down so nicely, just what I predicted they would do, there can almost be no inflation, but there can be a SLOWING of the economy unless Mr. Too Late, a major loser, lowers interest rates, NOW," Trump said.
