Frustration. but i also i don t think that the fed should be playing favorites at any point. i don t think we should have the fed. i think we should end the fed, this happens to be one of those days where there s a concentration of good news and great momentum for the president. what he has to do is ruminate in those great feelings and know that he needs a series of these good feeling days in order to propel him to re-election. he needs to not be impulsive or react to anybody neil: don t let the word get out that the guy is helping you. but there s no political sinister intentions that we know of here. we do know the federal reserve chairman was fearing about head winds from potential trade battles with china, what have you. but he s open to that. that would obviously give this recovery more of a shelf life, right? well, listen, the president is doing all he can when it comes to china just like you mentioned with the fed, looking ....
