Before he was president, Donald Trump had a signature catchphrase.
You're fired.
You're fired.
You're fired.
You're fired.
You're all fired.
You're fired.
Go. On his reality series, The Apprentice, President Trump made a big show of firing people.
It's a philosophy he's brought into his presidency,
firing agency heads and employees across the federal government.
And there's one person Trump has made really clear he wants to get rid of.
Jerome Powell, the chair of the Federal Reserve.
— They call him too late Powell, because he's always too late.
I mean, if you look at him, every time I did this, I was right 100 percent.
He was wrong.
— The president's just very unhappy.
— That's our colleague Nick Timros.
He covers the Fed.
— The Fed has paused interest rate cuts that they began last year
because They're worried that inflation is going to kick back up here due to the president's tariffs.
