well, applying simple logic here, if you were ok with the government going against trump for loan fraud, then you must be for the government going after cook for the same thing, fraud.
Now, I'm sure you're right about trump wanting control of fed, and I didn't/don't support firing cook with her having the opportunity to defend herself, but let's not overlook the basic fact that lisa cook apparently has lied on applications for mortgages in order to get a more favorable rate. And that's against the law. We can argue unfair, retribution, fed control, whatever we want, but in the end either she lied on the applications or she didn't.
Those on the right can bring up about Powell and his "favoritism" in cutting rates before the election. It's just not relevant here
CNBC had pulte on this morning and the interviewers kept coming back to all the factors you brought up, plus where did the tip come from, and to his credit Pulte kept coming back to the simple fact that it's against the law to falsify those documents. No matter how any of us try to rationalize this, it still comes back to same thing.
