You elect a sexual predator whose closest friend was a child rapist and you doubted he was in on the action? Now you’re surprised that he doesn’t want any new evidence of his involvement to get out? Really?

The move comes amid speculation that Trump, who has clashed with Powell over interest rates, might try to use the project to remove the Fed chief "for cause."
