#TrumpVsPowell Powell Stands His Ground Against Trump’s Demand to Resign – The Power Showdown is Intense!
Trump erupts: “Powell! Drop everything and write your resignation!”
Powell, cool as ever: “Yelling won’t help—I can’t be fired like that.”
Trump pleads: “Come on, I’m begging you!”
Powell stays unshaken: “Not happening. I’m staying right here.”
Reality check: The President can’t just fire the Fed Chair.
Why?
Because the Federal Reserve Chair serves a 14-year term and isn’t under direct presidential control. Only congressional pressure or formal proceedings might work.
Throwback to 2018:
When Powell hiked interest rates, the stock market tanked. Trump lost it, saying, “It’s like I got kicked in the head by a donkey!” But his hands were tied.
It’s all about power:
The Fed has major influence—practically the economy’s control switch. Trump turned up the heat, but Powell didn’t flinch: “The more you push, the stronger I get!”
Online reactions are gold:
“Trump: I beg you! Powell: No, you beg me! – Endless loop.”
“The Fed: I run my own show.”
“Coming soon: ‘The Fed: Not My Problem’—the series.”
Fun fact:
The Federal Reserve acts like the guardian of America’s economy. The President can yell all he wants—but he can’t pull the plug.
