President Trump crashed the party and visited Jerome Powell at the Federal Reserve construction site today, making him only the third President ever to visit the Federal Reserve.
It was a clear power play and Powell looked extremely uncomfortable.
Look at Powell’s face and body language, it’s dreadful!
Meanwhile, President Trump is having the time of his life:
JUST IN: President Trump starts arguing with a clearly uncomfortable Jerome Powell as the two wear their hard hats.
Trump: So we’re taking a look and it looks like it’s about 3.1 billion.
Powell: I’m not aware of that.
Trump: Yeah, it just came out.
Powell: Yeah, I haven’t… pic.twitter.com/CKAAvd0lvp

Talk about home field advantage….
President Trump is absolutely at home on a construction site and Powell looks like a fish out of water.
Daddy’s home Jerome and you are in big trouble!
Speaking of being at home, watch a 79 year old Trump completely navigating construction scaffolding with ease:

President Trump brought Tim Scott with him to investigate the massive cost overruns.
And I loved this question:
LMAO! A reporter just asked Trump at the Federal Reserve: “As a real estate developer, what would you do with the project manager with the over budget?”
TRUMP: “I’D FIRE HIM!”
Powell looks SUPER uncomfortable

So good!
You knew that question was coming!
I’ll end with this…
Watch as a reporter asks about rates and President Trump gives Powell a not-so-gentle slap on the back:
You can tell this is a surreal moment for Too Late Powell

A clear sign of dominance of the Alpha over the Beta.
Time to retire Jay, your 15 minutes are up.
