#PowellRemarks "HE IS A REAL FOOL! HE IS WORSE THAN ANYONE!"

US President Donald Trump once again criticized Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, saying that the person he appointed to this position during his last term has done a poor job. Trump's remarks on June 18, 2025, came shortly before the US central bank announced its decision to keep interest rates unchanged for the fourth consecutive time. Powell stated that despite high uncertainty, the country's economy is in a "steady position". Criticizing Powell for not lowering rates, Trump contemplated appointing himself as head of the Fed, claiming that he would do "a much better job than these people".
