Trump told reporters Tuesday that he was not going to back down the credit card interest rate issue. … we shall see. The effective date for the measure is January 20 which is 6 days from now.

Only Socialists and Communists want to control “free” market rates.
Trump, and his Red Party, are nominally neither (he just marries communists and dreams of one day growing up to be a full on “Commie” Dictator) so realize this is all a media ploy to get you suckers thinking he cares about your credit card debt (and so many of you seem to be taking the bait).

Trump: “I’m taking tons of expensive gifts from everyone. Gold bars, big planes, fake Peace Prizes… I order ICE and Border Patrol to harass citizens in blue states… I order the FBI to go after people I don’t like and constantly call out by name, even posting private messages as unintentional tweets to show it… I’m suing the government and ordering to government to settle to give me hundreds of millions of dollars…”

Trump: “I say cap on credit cards and want to go after Powell.”
