Jerome Powell Should Be Fired and Not Just Over Interest Rates

 Mike Dukakis and 1988 Election

- In summer 1988, Mike Dukakis led George H. W. Bush in polls.

- A photo of Dukakis in a military tank backfired, leading to negative ad campaigns portraying him as out-of-touch.

- Dukakis lost the election as many viewed him as unfit for presidency.

Trump and Jerome Powell's 2025 Tour

- On July 24, 2025, Trump and Powell visited the new Federal Reserve headquarters project.

- Trump seemed at ease, while Powell appeared uncomfortable.

- Trump highlighted the project's cost overruns, but Powell corrected him, indicating the costs were high but not as inflated.

Reasons for Trump's Desire to Replace Powell

- Trump wants Powell removed for his resistance to cutting interest rates.

- The construction-site incident reflected broader criticisms of Powell's competency.

- Highlighted Trump’s strengths and Powell’s difficulties in leadership.

Importance of Fed Autonomy

- Calls to remove Powell could undermine the Federal Reserve’s independence.

- Fed autonomy prevents political pressures from influencing rate cuts.

- Losing this independence risks a financial disaster and lowers confidence in U. S. debt.

Powell’s Track Record

- Powell appointed by Trump in 2017, initially resisted lowering rates during a booming economy.

- Eventually lowered rates significantly, depleting the Fed’s options during the pandemic.

Money Printing and Inflation Issues

- Powell aggressively printed money during COVID-19, maintaining low interest rates too long.

- Inflation surged to 9. 1%, a significant miscalculation.

- Powell and Biden downplayed inflation risks, leading to increased national debt.

- Powell's actions reveal a pattern of yielding to political pressure and mismanaging inflation.

- His potential removal may lead to constitutional issues but could benefit the Federal Reserve.
