But this week all eyes will be on Powell as he holds a solo press conference Wednesday that will be must-watch TV amid the political drama.

WASHINGTON (AP) — After months of criticizing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, President Donald Trump took the fight to the Fed’s front door on Thursday, publicly scorning the central bank chief over the ballooning costs of a long-planned building project. Powell pushed back, challenging the president’s latest price tag as incorrect.

Donald Trump is rarely fact-checked by his own appointees on camera. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell did it anyway.

Eyes were closed, heads were shaking and backs were slapped. The nonverbal cues at the president's visit to the Federal Reserve are worth another look.

Rather than owning up to the insult he hurled at the Fed chair just last week, the president slunk away without a word.

Trump is fed up with Powell, but experts say Americans seeking cheaper interest rates and lower prices shouldn’t be rooting for the Fed chair to be forced into an early exit.

President Trump is again clashing with Fed Chairman Jerome Powell in a face-to-face argument about interest rates and a hugely expensive renovation project at the Fed Headquarters.
