Trump has reportedly tasked aides to find a way to weaken the US dollar

Key Points

The U.S. president has reportedly tasked aides to find a way to weaken the dollar in an effort to boost the economy ahead of the 2020 election.
The strength of the U.S. dollar has proven a headache for Trump, who’s made reducing the U.S. trade deficit a priority.
