Trump vs. Jerome Powell – When Politics Meets the Fed
In the clash between Donald Trump and Fed Chair Jerome Powell, two powerful forces collided—politics and monetary policy. Trump wanted low interest rates to boost the economy during his presidency. Powell, focused on inflation control and long-term stability, wasn’t so easily swayed.
This wasn’t just a disagreement—it was a tug-of-war over control of the economic narrative. Can a president pressure the Fed? Should the Fed ever bend?
In the end, Powell held the line. The markets watched. The world took notes.
