Odaily Planet Daily News Business Weekly interviewed Trump, covering a wide range of topics including the US economy and his second presidential agenda if re-elected. Trump said that (if re-elected) he would allow Powell, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, to complete his term, including his term as a governor (expiring in 2028), especially if he thinks the latter is doing the right thing. In terms of policy interest rates, he warned that the Fed should avoid cutting interest rates before the November election to prevent boosting Biden. Regarding tax cuts, Trump hopes to reduce the corporate tax rate to 15% and no longer plans to ban TikTok. However, if this goal proves too difficult to achieve, he will be satisfied with a reduction to 20%. In addition, Trump also mentioned the issue of potential candidates for Treasury Secretary. He considered inviting JPMorgan Chase CEO Dimon to serve as Treasury Secretary. When it comes to the issue of presidential pardons, Trump insisted that he would not pardon himself if he was found guilty of federal crimes in the pending cases against him. (Bloomberg)
