   Trump says he's ordered "representatives" to buy $200 billion worth of   
   mortgages to lower interest rates. Apparently, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are   
   supposed to be those "representatives." White House spokespeople haven't   
   commented on this. Trump may have simply made this up. I also wouldn't rule   
   out the possibility that Trump thinks Fannie and Freddie Mac are two very   
   wealthy friends of his.
