This report is on the heels of the Federal Reserve’s decision to cut rates by half of a percentage point on Tuesday, in order to combat economic effects of coronavirus. The unemployment rate remains at a record-breaking, 50-year low. The Trump economy will undoubtedly be an asset to the president in November:
