Trump has voiced frustration with Secretary Mnuchin over his recommendation to nominate Powell for the Fed's top job as the central bank hiked interest rates throughout 2018.
In one meeting, Trump reportedly recalled a phone conversation he had with Powell in March. A person who attended that meeting told the Wall Street Journal that the president said he told Powell,"I guess I'm stuck with you."
