Trump called the Fed chair "TOO ANGRY, TOO STUPID, & TOO POLITICAL" after the central bank left interest rates unchanged again.

U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is a "numbskull" who has kept interest rates too high, but he will be out in eight months, President Donald Trump said at a news conference on Tuesday.

The central bank is poised to hold interest rates steady this month, but there could be a path to cut as early as September.
