**Trump Engages with Federal Reserve Chairman Amidst Past Criticism: A Comedy of Errors**
In a shocking twist that has left economists scratching their heads and comedians rubbing their hands in glee, former President Donald Trump has decided to engage in a friendly tête-à-tête with Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. This comes after years of Trump’s relentless Twitter tirades, where he once called Powell “a bigger disappointment than my last haircut.”
Sources close to the former president revealed that Trump was eager to “clear the air” and “discuss the economy like two grown-ups.” However, insiders say the meeting quickly devolved into a game of “Who Can Make the Weirdest Face?” with Trump reportedly winning by a landslide. “I’ve seen better faces on a potato,” Powell quipped, trying to maintain his composure.
During the meeting, Trump allegedly asked Powell, “Why can’t we just print more money? I mean, I printed a lot of my own money, and look how great I am!” Powell, who was busy trying to explain inflation, responded, “Sir, that’s not how it works,” to which Trump replied, “Well, it should be! I’m a very stable genius, you know.”
The highlight of the meeting came when Trump suggested that the Federal Reserve should start accepting “Trump Bucks,” a currency he claims is backed by “the best words.” Powell, visibly confused, asked, “What are Trump Bucks?” Trump responded, “They’re like Monopoly money, but with my face on it. Very collectible!”
As the meeting wrapped up, Trump reportedly left with a new plan to “make the economy great again” by launching a line of Trump-branded financial advice books titled “The Art of the Deal… Again.”
In the end, it seems that while the economy may be in a precarious state, at least we can count on Trump to keep the laughs coming. As he famously said, “If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with nonsense!” And boy, did he deliver!
