#TrumpVsPowell Powell refuses Trump's resignation request—what a confrontation!

Trump shouted: “Powell! Resign now!”

Powell calmly replied: “You can't fire me like that.”

Trump pleaded: “Come on, I'm begging you!”

Powell firmly stated: “Not going to happen!”

Here is the agreement:

The president cannot directly fire the Fed chair.

Why? Because the Fed chair serves a 14-year term and can only be removed through formal procedures—not just by shouting.
