Powell: Fraud? Getting real nasty:

U.S. President Donald Trump will visit the Federal Reserve on Thursday, the White Housesaid, escalating his pressure campaign against Chairman Jerome Powell.

American presidents have traditionally respected the independence of the central bank, which is insulated both in law and in practice from the political whims of elected officials.

Trump’s visit is a remarkable symbolic move on that independence, bringing his drumbeat of criticism over Powell’s refusal to lower interest rates right to the chairman’s doorstep.

The White House released a schedule on Wednesday that said Trump would visit the Federal Reserve at 4:00 p.m. ET on Thursday.

Trump has repeatedly criticized Powell for not cutting interest rates, even floating the idea of firing him, despite legal questions over his authority to do so.

“I think he’s done a bad job, but he’s going to be out pretty soon anyway,” Trump told reporters earlier this week at a White House event.

Trump last week sought opinion from a group of Republican lawmakers on firing Powell, before denying he intended to remove the Fed chair. “We’re not planning on doing it ... I think it’s highly unlikely, unless he has to leave for fraud.”
