William Dudley Says Powell Should ‘Protect’ Fed If Trump Ousts Him

William Dudley Says Powell Should ‘Protect’ Fed If Trump Ousts HimPresident Donald Trump has been talking with advisers about making an unprecedented attempt to remove Powell, Bloomberg News reported Friday. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said on Twitter on Saturday that Trump is not weighing such a move, and it’s unclear whether the president has the legal authority to make it.
