> Former Trump senior economic adviser Stephen Moore says inflation remains too high for the Federal Reserve to cut rates and argues it should keep borrowing costs unchanged for now, despite President Donald Trump’s repeated calls for lower rates. Moore also warns that higher oil prices and the intensifying US-Canada trade fight could threaten the economy and Republicans.
