Why Donald Trump keeps attacking Federal Reserve boss Jerome Powell

US President Donald Trump has some famous neemis: illegal immigrants, low-flowing and final, but of course, head of the US central bank.

To lead the Federal Reserve starting in 2018 by Trump, Jerome Powell found himself almost under fire – described as a bonehead on social media and questioned about reports that the President wanted he left.

But still uncomfortable Powells can be, his position has only deteriorated.

Not only is he overseeing an economy where the risk of recession is increasing rapidly, Trump is publicly tampered with his expulsion, Writing on social media last week: “Powell’s termination cannot come up enough!”

Coming at a time when Trump has pushed to expand the President’s power, while dodging political opponents and plowing the previous judicial efforts to investigate his action, it has increased the alarm that he is more serious, and can be more capable of controlling the fed during his first term.

Tension cools down this week, when Trump, a day after a market, some analysts tied the comments, denied reporters that he had any intention to fire Powell at any time.

Trump’s economic rhetoric has faced growing political and commercial backlash, especially as a trade tariff, as a trade tariff.

But Trump did not give much assurance that he would limit his interventions in the fed, maintain his right to have an attitude and, seeing that he could call Powell to discuss his concerns about the bank’s interest rate policy.

Donald Kohan, a senior partner at the Brookings Institution and a senior partner of the Federal Reserve, said that the change in tone appeared to calm the financial markets, but he did not think that it marks the end of the fight on the fed, an organization considered the world’s largest economy.

“This is a testimony to the market response,” he said. “But I think it’s soon to say that there is a stability.”

Trump’s confrontation with the Fed has been taken into consideration that the bank should fix its major interest rate, which plays an impressive role shaping the borrowed costs for credit cards, mortgage and other loans.

Low rates make it easier to borrow and have a tendency to promote economic boost. High interest rates reduce activity, which helps to keep prices stable.

Trump, who cut his teeth professionally to take a loan as a property developer, has confessed to lowering a lower interest rate policy for a long time.

He objected when Fed raised the rates in his first term and is now motivating Powell to cut them, arguing that inflation has cooled down and keeping the rates too much can cause unnecessary economic damage.

He said, “As long as Mr. to Late, a major loser, reduces interest rates, the economy may be slow,” he wrote on social media earlier this week.

Trump is hardly the first politician to cast the bank as a sacrifice of sacrifice in a moment of economic turmoil – or to press for low interest rates.

Nor is he alone in Powell’s criticism, which initially dismissed the pandemic value inflation as “fleeting” and was faulty for focusing a lot on backward looking data.

Trump’s pressure on the bank, however, breaks the fed to the presidency in recent decades with the Washington tradition.

This has compared former President Richard Nixon, who pushed his fed chairman to loosen his policies before the 1972 election, later convicted for feeding the high-explosion of that decade, low-development “stagflatery” dynamic.

The idea that Trump can control the fed elISITs among many economists, which say that history is covered with examples of countries where political intervention in central banks caused spiral prices and economic ruin.

Sarah Binder, professor and scholar of Federal Reserve at George Washington University, said that the Federation of Federation is important to maintain the confidence of the market that inflation will be controlled.

If shaken, it can cause high borrowing costs for all, as investors demand high interest rates to hold debt, he warned, given that the fed should eventually cut the rates, it is likely to incite speculation about the impact of Trump – even if, if all, if, if in all, it was played in the decision.

“This is eventually a problem. It is a perception about freedom that really matters and that is the dangerous effect of attacks that they raise doubts about whether the fed can be stalwart as a stalwart because the central bankers want,” he said.

During Trump’s first term, the chief economist of SMBC Nikco Securities, who served in the National Economic Council, said that Lavorgana said that he saw Trump very little requirement to return his attacks, given that he was creating “very classic macro logic” about the bank imperfections.

He said, “I am completely on the board with the President’s sympathy or comments that Fed is historically late,” he said he felt that stock market falls were mainly inspired by questions about business policy.

He said that he believes that the Fed officials will remain more responsible for the financial conditions than the President, given that, if anything, can hesitate more to cut the pressure of Trump, then it is not that it is considered as a cow.

“What Fed is finally going to do, which is prudent,” he said. “The question is just time.”

Pavel, a long -time Washington lawyer, whose term is due to the end of the next year, said that he is uncontrolled – and uncontrolled – criticism and said that Trump does not have a legal right to remove him.

But the strength of his situation is a matter of legal debate.

According to the law, the Fed Governor can only be removed for the cause, but it is not clear whether the security board leads to the role.

The administration has already taken steps to reduce Fed’s regulatory role and other government agencies are engaged in a legal battle on the Presidential Authority’s expansion, such as the reason for safety, intended to insulating them with biased pressure.

Washington -based investment advisor Mark Spindel, founder and Chief Investment Officer, who has worked with Pro Binder on Fed Studies, said that the fed “freedom” tradition evolved over time, often after political or economic crisis.

“The things that are given can be taken away,” he said, a few hours before Trump returned.

A few days later asked for his views again, Mr. Spindel wrote only two words in response: “The loss was done.”
