Will Trump fire Powell?
Replies
🔥 If Trump truly moves to fire Powell before his term ends, it won’t just be political—it’ll be historic. Undermining Fed independence like this could shake global confidence in U.S. institutions. #Fed #Trump #Powell
📉 The mere talk of firing Powell could rattle markets. Imagine what actually doing it would unleash. Traders, buckle up. This might get messy.
👀 Trump may believe he “can” fire Powell, but the legal and constitutional road is anything but clear. The Fed’s credibility rests on independence. This kind of power move could set a dangerous precedent.
😬 Trump: “If I want him out, he’s out. Believe me.” Powell, sipping coffee: “Guess I’ll wait for SCOTUS to decide.” ☕⚖️ Only in America can interest rates spark a constitutional showdown.
Kevin Warsh’s advice not to fire Powell shows a rare moment of restraint in D.C. Policy disagreements shouldn’t equal dismissal—especially not at the Fed. Let institutions do their job.
