...asking Jerome Powell, who happens to be a fellow Republican, to resign?



In his zeal to go after the 'Deep State' & replace Powell with a handpicked successor, Trump may be taking on forces much bigger than him or the Presidency.

Going after the Fed Chairman is like poking a sleeping bear if a person is locked in a room with it.

The US Fed IS the Deep State & the have plenty of allies on Wall Street.

No US President has ever asked a Fed Chairman to resign before.

If Trump continues to antagonize Powell, he & his friends could unleash hell of his own him.

Like...crash the Stock Market during Trump's term?

And this is something Trump greatly fears that would happens under his watch:



But if he antagonizes the Fed & the Deep State like he is, his greatest fears could be realized.

Are you conceding that:

A. The "deep state" is, in fact, real; and
B. It is, in fact, the real government at the practical level? That we do, indeed, have an unelected and unaccountable "shadow government"?

Yes, I've heard this before.

However, I think it unwise to mess with them, especially the ones who might be the forces behind running the economy.

Quite possibly, someone such as Jerome Powell, may be just the face for their interests.

But if anyone antagonizes them, they can unleash hell on those that do.

Another Bedwetter being told what to think.......

Good morning Bedwetter

.......could it be that ole Jerome is more friendly with the very same neocons that you folk (especially the old hags) piss yourself over?

Tell us more about his background and career and then explain how he would be an asset in Trump's plan to get the economic stability of this country back on track.

You demonstrate an overwhelming sense if fear common to most bedwetters in practically every sentence of your post.

A president doesnt tell a Fed Chair to resign without facing consequences.

Yes, Someone who can ignite or deflate a stock market & the world economy by merely raising or lowering interest rates half a percentage point does wield considerable power.

So if Trump considers high valuations in a stock market as his ‘precious’ i think he’d better watch out who he’s picking fights with.

The real Deep State is what it always was - the money behind the politicians. Today they are coming out of the shadows and openly directing such things as negotiations between Dicktater Trump and foreign leaders.
See Elon Musk.
