BREAKING:  Trump asked multiple House Republicans if he should fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell, and many voiced their approval.

If Republicans want interest rates to rise, this is exactly what they should want to happen.

The confidence in the Fed and US treasuries would likely collapse if Powell is fired, leading to HIGHER rates, not LOWER rates.
