According to BlockBeats, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that the latest GDP figures show a growth rate of 3.8%, highlighting the success of the economy. However, he criticized the current interest rates as being too high, attributing this to Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. Trump suggested that without Powell's influence, interest rates would be at 2% and the budget would be balanced. Despite these challenges, Trump expressed optimism, stating that the nation is overcoming these obstacles and will soon perform better than ever.
