$ETH TrumpVsPowell: Clash of the Titans

Trump: “Powell, resign—now!”

Powell: “You don’t get to fire me like that.”

Trump: “Come on, I’m begging you!”

Powell: “Still a no.”

Here’s the scoop:

The Fed Chair isn’t like a cabinet member—you can’t just shout them out of office. Appointed for a 14-year term, they can only be removed via formal process. No shortcuts. No tantrums.

Flashback to 2018:

Powell raised interest rates. Markets dipped. Trump flipped.

He called it “like getting kicked by a donkey!”

But even then, he couldn’t boot Powell.

The takeaway:

The Fed plays by economic rules, not political ones.

Trump turned up the heat. Powell didn’t flinch.

“The more pressure, the stronger I stand.” —Powell, probably.

The internet’s eating it up:

“Trump: Quit! Powell: Nah.”

“The Fed: We serve the economy, not egos.”

“Next time on 'Powell vs Pressure'…”

Fun Fact:

The Fed runs the economy’s engine—and it’s built to resist political potholes.
