...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.
