RE: Trump Turns Up the Heat on Fed Chair Powell

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

This will get dropped, if it ever even gets to a court, just like the charges against Comey and Letitia James. Trump talked about this in his first term, right after he appointed Powell as fed chair. There wasn't enough to bring charges then, and there isn't enough now. The only difference is that now he has an AG that will do whatever he says, even if it has absolutely no chance in front of a grand jury.

Good point, but Trump wants this more badly than he wanted the others because there's a specific action he wants Powell to carry out so he might go further this time.

Secondly I think it also depends on what they have on Powell, this accusation seems like it might hold water. It just depends on whether the difference between what Powell said to Congress about the Headquarters and what the actual Headquarters is is tangible enough.

They don't have anything new on Powell, they just have an AG that doesn't care if she takes an embarrassingly bad case to court. As I said, Trump tried to do this before, and it never even went in front a judge.
