FOMC AND TRUMP
Donald Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, has publicly criticized the Fed—again.
He recently called Fed Chair Jerome Powell "stupid" and demanded immediate, massive rate cuts.
Trump argues the Fed is hurting the economy by keeping interest rates too high, especially as he campaigns on economic growth.
“The Fed is crushing America’s economy and killing jobs… Powell should be fired.” — Donald Trump, June 2025
