During the U.S.-Saudi Arabia Investment Forum in Washington, Trump criticized Powell, albeit indirectly, while addressing Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. The President remarked that Powell "needs to work on" his approach, highlighting his discontent with the current state of mortgage rates.

Trump's critique of Powell was pointed and unambiguous. "Mortgage rates are down despite the Fed. I mean, Scott, you got to work on this guy. He’s got some real mental problems. No, he has something wrong with him," Trump asserted. He further emphasized his frustration by stating, "I’ll be honest, I’d love to fire his ass. He should be fired. Guy’s grossly incompetent."

The publication's Economics Editor, John Carney, pointed out that the Federal Reserve's apprehension regarding Trump's tariffs was misguided.

"I’m building a ballroom that’s going to cost a tiny fraction of that, and it’s bigger than the whole thing put together," Trump remarked, underscoring his disapproval of the Fed's fiscal management.
