President Donald Trump again ripped into Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell on Friday, questioning whether he is a “bigger enemy” to the United States than Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Trump tweeted his attack, which misspelled the central bank chief’s name before it was corrected, not long after Powell delivered a speech in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. As he uses tariffs to try to force China to change what he calls unfair trade practices, Trump has repeatedly said he does not blame Xi, a communist leader who has consolidated power in China.

Calling the FED chairman an enemy. Is this a new low for Trump? Probably not. He's already done worse.

Or...if you think the FED needs to go, you can say that, instead of calling fellow Americans "the enemy" you know?

Haha, the FED needs to go. You Trump supporters are hilarious. You will rationalize any idiotic comment made by this buffoon. It truly boggles the mind.
 
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell was appointed by Trump.

Chinese President Xi isn't an enemy, he's a rival.

The only thing Trump has against the Fed is that he can't control it. He thinks he's a dictator and the Fed should do what he says.
 
Trump appointed an 'enemy' to Chairman of the Fed!!!!

Sounds impeachable to me.. Time for him to go.
 
The Dotard forgot to mention the third option .... himself ... he is the man that started it all

Someone who thinks the FED needs to go is clueless regarding anything related to economics and is in fact a danger to the country. Unfortunately, mass communication has given a whole lot of clueless people the idea that simply because they can express an opinion, their opinion must be worth something, but it's also given them a megaphone to derp on about it.

This is ****ing mental even for Trump.

I can’t wait to see how his pathetic supporters are gonna twist and turn their way through this one.

Let me tell you this Trump supporters, you better hope, you better hope there isn’t actually some kind of economic crisis coming because he can’t angrily tweet and troll liberals out of it and your undying love, support and excuses for his every idiocy won’t either.

And if/when it happens, any number of them will no doubt happily go on the safety net programs they regularly insist should be dismantled.

If he is such an enemy, why did Donald J. Trump nominate him?

That's an easy question to answer.

Trump always needs someone to blame. He cannot never be at fault, about anything at all, otherwise he might lose the blind faith of his supporters. Plus his ego would take a hit, and we know he hates that.

There is no one the Democratic Party and most progressives don't love, are more submissive to and most worship that the world's super rich, including super rich bankers.

He said something unkind about a Democrat Party's god, lord and master. Of course many Democrat progressives will be upset, no different than a radical Muslim gets upset if anything negative is said about Muhammad. Same zealotry.

Are you completely insane? Your post does not make one iota of sense. You sound like Rush Limbaugh had a threesome with Hannity and Alex Jones, then had an affair with Trump, got pregnant, didn't know the father was, and got an abortion. That abortion is what most of your posts sound like. Why post here if you're just going to spew out nonsense? Don't they have specific forums for that stuff? Damn.

Does your post look like a bunch of strawmen to you?

Or do you see windmill or something else instead?
 
My browser sawed off the title right before "enemy," but I successfully predicted that was the next word because it's Trump saying it, and that's just how he thinks.

The writing is on the wall for Powell. Trump will look for someone he can control. He wants a dictatorship for America.

Powell’s term ends in January 2022. Trump cannot fire him. That’s what pisses him off.
