Trump again calls for Fed to cut rates, says Powell’s ‘termination cannot come fast enough’
Trump reiterates his attack on the Federal Reserve, demands immediate rate cuts, and demands Powell's ouster. On April 17, 2025, amid growing economic and political tensions, former President Donald Trump has rekindled his attacks on the Federal Reserve and its chairman, Jerome Powell, in a familiar return to a long-standing feud. 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." The new criticism was voiced at a campaign rally in Ohio and later appeared in posts on Trump's Truth Social social media platform.
