Trump Fed Chair Replacement Coming—Rate Cut July Next in Line?

How Trump FED Chair Replacement Can Trigger Rate Cuts and Crypto?

Jerome Powell’s job might be in serious danger—and the U.S. Presidnet is not hiding it anymore. The Trump Fed Chair replacement drama is heating up—and fast. He has openly confirmed that he’s interviewing new candidates to take over, even though Powell’s term runs until May 2026. The twist? If this happens  then it could flip the script on rate cuts, inflation policy, and even crypto market momentum.

The Trump Powell feud escalated further after the president's blunt remarks on June 20–21, 2025, when he called the chairman a “moron,” adding that the country is “paying the price for his incompetence,” as per Truth Social reports.  This wasn’t the first time he expressed frustration over Powell’s interest tariff decisions—but it may be the most serious.

Trump Fed Chair Candidates: Who's On the Shortlist?

According to Litquidity Capital’s founder earlier post, one of the candidates might include Bill Hwang, the controversial hedge fund figure behind the Archegos collapse, who is allegedly being considered as a top candidate.

Other names being floated as potential Jerome replacements include:

• Kevin Warsh – Former Federal Governor

• Kevin Hassett – Former National Economic Council head

• Christopher Waller – Current Federal reserve Governor

• Scott Bessent – Ex-Treasury Secretary under Donald

As of now, no official confirmation has been made, but the Trump Fed Chair pick could bring a major shift in monetary policy—especially around the rate cut July 2025 debate.

Can Donald Really Replace the Chairman of the Federal Reserve?

Technically, Trump replacing Powell before 2026 faces legal barriers due to a Supreme Court precedent protecting Fed independence. However, he may not need to fire Powell outright. By openly evaluating successors, he is likely aiming to pressure the chairman into rate cuts.

Earlier Fed officials have stated that no rate cut is expected in July, but with U.S. Leader's aggressive stance, this forecast could soon change.

Interest Rate Cut July 2025: Now Back on the Table?

This renewed attention on the feud comes just weeks after Fed Chair indicated no near-term cuts, citing “economic resilience” and “inflation control.”

But if the president continues to push forward publicly with Jerome Powell replacement news, analysts suggest that:

• July rate cut odds may increase

• Crypto Market may see Bitcoin and altcoin crash along with trading volume

This development is now directly linked to the Federal Reserve news cycle, influencing everything from bond yields to BTC prices.

Final Take: Replacement Is Real—Or Just Shake Markets?

Though Trump FED chair replacement may be legally difficult, the strategy seems effective. By big names floating and framing Jerome as unfit, president is dominating the interest rate cut policy narrative.

What should every trader watch next?

• Watch for the FOMC July meeting outcome

• Stay alert for sudden changes in rate cut guidance

• Follow the U.S. leader's next public announcements or social media posts

• Monitor crypto market price spikes and volatility till the next major update come.
