That Powell... what an ASSHAT! The Fed uses "every trick in the books" to make inflation appear to be less than it is. And then they have the gall to say, "Americans are better off when their money buys less and less". Surely he can't be stupid enough to believe all of us will buy that load of crap! Yeah, SOMEBODY benefits from inflation... but it ain't "we the people". https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-05-19/fed-lie-day-low-inflation-one-major-challenges-our-time
Yep, and Trump is no different than any of the other folks to appoint these idiots. Despite railing against them in a "tweet" at one point for blowing a bubble.
