is a moron, and his team doesn’t help him beat the allegations by constantly setting him up for failure. The internet remains in stitches after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell hit Felon 47 with the mother of all fact-checks in real time.
Trump doesn’t like Jerome Powell, the Fed Chair he appointed during his first term as president,

During a trip to the Federal Reserve headquarters to complain about the renovations that the “master builder” claims are soaring in cost, which he says have jumped from $2.7 billion to $3.1 billion, Powell quickly responded that he “didn’t hear from anyone at the Fed.”

Social Media Loved Jerome Powell Fact-Checking Donald Trump
The incredible exchange sparked numerous reactions, primarily from folks praising Powell for doing something many should be doing: pushing back against Trump’s lies.

No lies detected.
