Trump Says Fed’s Warsh Faces Board That’s a ‘Bit Hostile’
President Donald Trump said Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh may not be able to compel his colleagues on the central bank to do what the new chair wants on monetary policy.

A prominent economist on Thursday warned that President Donald Trump's economy has raised some concerns.Justin Wolfers, an economics and public policy professor at the University of Michigan, responded to a new report from the Department of Labor, which indicated the United States has added fewer jobs in June — just 57,000 jobs that month."Each month we just learn a little bit more about the economy," Wolfers said. "We've seen a few really, really good months, and it was a 'yabba dabba doo' moment. I was very excited. And what we see here is maybe we shouldn't be so excited. This is an economy that is not as hot as we might have thought a month ago. It's also not an economy that's sinking by any means — it's treading water; it's doing OK. Let's cross our fingers and try not to do anything wrong, and hopefully we'll keep it."For instance, Wolfers noted that the latest data showed there has been a decline in leisure and hospitality hiring at a time when several U.S. cities are hosting the World Cup, which he described as a "double whammy" for the economy. He also argued that every industry outside of healthcare showed signs of shrinking.
