President Trump has renewed his criticism of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, stating that Powell should "resign immediately." This marks the latest in a series of public disagreements between the President and the head of the central bank, primarily concerning the Fed's interest rate policies. Trump has consistently advocated for lower interest rates to stimulate economic growth, while the Fed has maintained a more cautious approach. The renewed call for Powell's resignation underscores the ongoing tension between the White House and the independent Federal Reserve.
