Mnuchin says Trump told him he 'never suggested firing' Fed chairman
The chances of Trump firing Powell are the same as Trump firing Sotoymyer or Kagen...
But notice how many people will claim otherwise, because it suits their agenda that Trump is a defective who must be cashiered to save America.
They are willing to burn America down to burn Trump out.
ASSHOLES
Trump displays he is lacking knowledge in so many areas, it's not even funny anymore.That's basically an announcement that he's going to fire Powell. The stock market should react well to that.
Edit: Renato Mariotti takes it one step further:
"If the markets think that the U.S. president can and will fire the Fed Chair whenever he dislikes a rate hike, that will really hurt our economy."
So yes, just the prospect that Trump may fire Powell will hurt the market. Which is really interesting when you think about it: Trump really does seem invested in the idea of a strong stock market since that's one of the last few arguments he has in support of him. For a guy who's so invested in a strong stock market, he sure does seem to enjoy creating situations that drive the market down.

He's also not lacking in many areas according to 81% of Republicans.
Btw, it's just wishful hearsay and thinking coming from the left that Trump will fire Powell.
IOW, more :bs from the loony left.

Which begs the question what is it that Republicans are lacking that they can't see this ever growing steaming pile of a mess.
It would appear that you gave zero critical thought to my post above as your refutation is nothing but a red herring.

Wait a minute. Steve Mnuchin reports that Trump told him that he (Trump) "'never suggested firing' Fed chairman." That Trump says he didn't do so is plenty reason to think Trump did indeed suggest firing Fed chairman.
Why is Mnuchin telling us what Trump said Trump never suggested to Mnuchin? Does anyone else find that bizarre from jump?
Such is our very low quality journalism.
That was my way of telling you one's party's faith in their candidate, does not determine competence.I have all night.
The cookies, fudge have been made, and the presents are wrapped.
