Bloomberg have snagged the remarks from Trump, interview on Bloomberg TV:
Mr T says if he is elected President he would not be looking to remove Powell before Powell’s term endsays Trumponomics is low interest rates and tariffssays the Fed should not cut rates prior to the election

Looks like my tin hat was right!
