#PowellVsTrump may refer to the growing contrast or tension between Jerome Powell, chairman of the Federal Reserve (Fed), and Donald Trump, especially regarding economic issues and monetary policy. Here are the key points of the possible confrontation:

🔹 1. Historical context

During Trump's presidency (2017-2021), there were numerous public criticisms from Trump towards Powell.

Trump went as far as to say that Powell was a “bigger enemy than China” for raising interest rates in 2018-2019.

🔹 2. Monetary Policy Powell has defended the independence of the Fed and has prioritized controlling inflation.

Trump often advocates for lower rates to boost economic and stock market growth.

If Trump wins in 2024, he could try to push for aggressive rate cuts — which would directly clash with Powell's cautious stance on inflation.
