#PowellVsTrump Powell vs Trump refers to public disagreements and tensions between U.S President Donald Trumps and Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, particularly regarding interest rate policies. The clash has been especially in context of potential economic impacts.
Trump is back swinging at Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell — and this time, it’s personal… and political.
🇺🇸 After weeks of pressure over stalled interest rates and a $2.5B Fed renovation, the former president reportedly waved a draft termination letter at GOP lawmakers behind closed doors. Yes, you read that right — a draft firing notice!
Publicly, Trump says it’s “highly unlikely” he’ll fire Powell unless it’s for fraud — but insiders say the tension is boiling over.
As markets wobble and Senate Republicans warn of backlash, this raises a BIG question:
Powell’s term ends in 2026 — and unless laws change, firing him isn’t that simple. But with Trump, anything can become a headline storm.
