#TrumpVsPowell

Donald Trump and Jerome Powell’s feud is like a financial soap opera—“The Bold and the Interest Rates.” Trump spent years roasting Powell for hiking rates, blaming him for slowing the economy and cramping his trade swagger. Powell, meanwhile, calmly adjusted rates like a DJ spinning boring but important beats. In 2024, Trump’s back at it, accusing Powell of playing rate games to mess with his comeback tour. He’s even hinted at firing Powell—again. It’s like The Apprentice, but for central bankers. Behind the drama is a real concern: should the economy be run by economists or reality TV stars?
