    LOL, Powell will be gone soon enough, it's not really worth the fight and really all it does is shorten the timeline for Trump to carry out his agenda. Bad news is a lot of good people are going to get laid off before Powell's term is up. Fortunately they will get their jobs back once Powell is gone and then the economy will really begin to takeoff. Powell is the Deep States last stand at globalizing almost everything.

    The people working for him now don't appear to hate his guts. In fact they appear to be on board with his agenda. You know the agenda the voters elected him to carry out.

    Of course I do. Powell like Barr and Pence were really just Rino's/globalists playing like dressed up Republicans.

    It's one of the many hiring mistakes he made during his last POTUS. Fortunately this time around it looks like he's hired like minded people.

    I really could see a guy like Bessent or even Charles Payne being appointed as the next Fed chair. Like I said hiring Powel was a setback, but Trump isn't going to make the same mistake twice and Powell's reign will be over soon enough.

    Trump has already repeated the same mistake of
    • ill-conceived tariffs
    • re-hiring Ron Navr, aka Peter Navarro

    Do you realize how much money tariffs have already brought into this country and Trump's tariff policies have caused foreign countries to invest in the USA like they never have before. Also tariffs haven't really caused inflammation to rise at all. So to summarize, tariffs have brought more money and investment into the USA and at little cost of inflation. What's your problem?

    Navarro is better at his job than Powell is at his. Trump is putting people in place that will help carry out the agenda he was voted to carry out. You just don't like Trump or the people who voted for his agenda.

    All this raging at Powell is pretty funny.

    There is no magic 'fix economy' button the Fed Chair is sitting on.

    You either step on the money printer and blow out inflation or don't and choke the markets.

    It's two ends of the same teeter-totter. There is no right answer, you're just choosing how you want to die.
