Fed, White House and Jerome Powell
Digest more
Trump's beef with Jerome Powell centers on interest rates, but he has also started criticizing his management of the renovation of two Fed buildings.
Powell was nominated by Trump in November 2017 and was confirmed by the Senate in January 2018. The Fed chair’s term lasts four years, and Biden did indeed nominate Powell for a second term, though Trump tries to make it sound like he had nothing to do with Powell’s first appointment.
