#TrumpVsPowell – Clash at the Top
Trump is turning up the heat on Fed Chair Jerome Powell again, reigniting a rivalry that could shake markets.
Here’s what’s happening:
– Trump wants lower interest rates, blaming Powell for holding back economic growth
– Powell says inflation still isn’t under control, keeping the Fed on a cautious path
– Trump has floated replacing Powell, reportedly eyeing former Fed governor Kevin Warsh for the role
The deeper issue? Presidential pressure vs. central bank independence.
Markets are watching closely. A leadership shake-up at the Fed could disrupt monetary policy and stir up volatility — especially in election season.
This isn’t just politics. It’s about who controls the narrative on inflation, growth, and the future of the U.S. economy.
