Trump, who is currently the most likely Republican candidate for president in 2024, reiterated his call for an immediate decrease in interest rates and slammed Powell's leadership, stating that "his termination cannot come fast enough."

Trump accused the Fed of "suffocating the economy" with what he labeled as “reckless and unnecessary” interest rate hikes that, in his view, are slowing economic growth and burdening American families.

New England Spring

I can hear the wind even as I sit within and change my shoes.
