President Trump on Thursday toured the Federal Reserve headquarters renovations, which have ballooned over one billion dollars over budget.
Powell is under fire for the cost of renovating the Fed’s DC headquarters. The cost ballooned from $1.9 billion to $2.5 billion. He currently also faces a criminal referral to the Justice Department from Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL).
Trump announced earlier that he was joined by Senator Tim Scott, Senator Thom Tillis, OMB Director Russ Vought, Chairman of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Bill Pulte, my Appointees to the National Capital Planning Commission, James Blair and Will Scharf, and various other construction professionals.
President Trump also said the renovation will actually cost $3.1 billion or more!
If there is one thing I have learned in the past few years, it is “Never bet against Donald Trump.”
