What happens when Trump replaces Powell at the Fed with a Trump butt LICKER and he lowers rates to 0%?

[888theGreat]

Trump wants Powell Out and he will replace him with a Trump yes MAN and that means Interest rates will be lowered to 0% . Trumpy hopes this will cause growth and Republicans will hold on to House and Senate , but the bad part it will also cause higher prices tham when Biden was in office. He has to hope the inflation hits after the 2026 Ellections. So, yes it might work for 2026 , but it will mean a disaster for 2028 Elections , but Trump would be gone unless he can cause a civil war or major war or can impose Martial Law to cancel elections and stay in Power.

Not only that, it has horrible long reaching ramifications for the US dollar; will harm the greater economy, destroy and devalue the dollar and our reputation as the default currency, scare away foreign investors, make us look like morons and amateur idiots, more so than he already does, just by being president, and representing us (badly) on the world stage.

Firing Powell would be unlikely to change the committee's approach to monetary policy, and in fact could harden its position on rates.
Even if the FOMC did cut, it could do more harm than good to Trump's goal of lowering finance costs on the national debt. The last time the Fed cut, in the final four months of 2024, Treasury yields rose almost in perfect reverse correlation to the rate reductions, and the same thing could happen again if markets perceive the Fed is surrendering its inflation-fighting credentials to placate Trump.

"The historical record suggests that political interference contributed to poor monetary policy in the late '60s and early '70s, with unfavorable consequences for inflation developments," JPMorgan Chase chief U. S. economist Michael Feroli wrote. "Any reduction in the independence of the Fed would likely add upside risks to an inflation outlook that is already subject to upward pressures from tariffs and somewhat elevated inflation expectations."

While Trump wants the Fed to slash its key borrowing rate by 3 percentage points, such a move could raise inflation expectations, causing fixed income investors to demand higher yields, "thereby increasing longer-term interest rates, weighing on the outlook for economic activity, and worsening the fiscal position”

Nothing you say is true. None of your ridiculous predictions have come true. None of your absurd predictions will ever come true.
Here’s a bit of truth for your posts; just for a change of pace.

https://youtu.be/nARdeQJCSuQ?si=FDpE7bqdBEULpF7v

Drumpf’s fiscal policies are working and even the mainstream news is reporting on it now.
So, to answer your question, more wins for US citizens, bankers and business owners will happen. Drumpf can’t stop winning and you can’t stop lying about it. He even managed to make a huge win out of an otherwise unpopular military strike. Why aren’t you making up sh*t about that anymore? Too much truth available for you to overcome? Millions of Venezuelans in the US and abroad celebrating their opportunities and thanking the sitting US president for intervening where no one else would, and stories about it are everywhere. Again, even the mainstream news is reporting on those FACTS. Something you seem to have no use for. Doesn’t it get old showing your *ss online all day everyday?

Even though it will cause inflation to go through the ceiling, Trump will keep lying and telling us over and over again that everything is just fine. Kind of like he is doing now.

[888theGreat]

He will blame Powell, Biden, and Democrats

[msc545]

He may blame Clinton and Hillary too.

[888theGreat]

He might even blame George Washington. Maybe China or Illegals

[msc545]

Let's not forget North Korea. They would be very hurt if he left them out of this.

[beefcakebradybatson]

And the MAGANs will believe his lies.

[BonzoInBitburg]

If that happens and the Fed loses its independence, money will leave the US and flow to other more predictable markets around the world. Industrial investors do not want Trump more involved in the economy. His meddling has already gone too far and it's very clear by his comments that he does not understand how an economy works.

[Tamera952]

Well said, that is it in a nutshell. Nobody in the know wants his ham fisted, Vienna sausage fingered touch on anything to do with economics.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

I'm surprised you didn't say he was gonna drop the interest rates to a negative number. This is a lot of restraint from you.

[888theGreat]

That is possible too

[exitseven]

Every other industrialized nation have lowered interest rates by at least 100 basis points , most lowering it more. The Us has reduced it by only 75 basis points.
High interest rates are holding the economy back and preventing Americans from home ownership. President Trump is trying the make America more affordable.

[msc545]

And here you are once again with your tongue in Trump's ass.

[888theGreat]

@msc545 Yep

[exitseven]

@msc545 What did I say that is not true?

[msc545]

Everything you said was untrue.

[exitseven]

@msc545 look it up. He EU and other industrialized nations have dropped interest rates at leas 100 basis points. And President Trump is trying to make America more affordable. It is funny that democrats complain that America is not affordable and then hates it when President Trump does something about it.

[msc545]

Trump apparently doesn't have the slightest understanding of economics. He's trying to appeal to the masses to get votes, but in doing so, he is going to increase inflation tremendously. That's not helpful.

[exitseven]

@msc545 Inlation has been holding steady

[msc545]

Give it a bit more time, and it won't be holding steady.

[exitseven]

@msc545 The economic numbers looked good, not great but they seem to trend in the right direction. 2026 there will be the big tax cut, new factories will come on line, interest rates will be lower and some of rhe other economic stimulus policies will cause a booming economy.

[msc545]

Don't hold your breath for any of this. You'll be lucky if we don't have a civil war in 2026.

[exitseven]

@msc545 maybe the winners VS the losers.

[msc545]

You'd probably welcome that until somebody started shooting at you.

[Sevenpointfive]

does he really want 0%? why have money at that point? i'm all for a co-op type of society, but that could never happen. but i thought he couldn't fire him? that's the only reason he's still there.

[Likes2drive]

Average home is almost $1 million where I live so maybe gold will double in price, but the banks would go out of business if you lowered the interest rate on mortgages to zero, which which would be good for the economy if it was temporarily because I would love to refinance at that rate

[888theGreat]

Average Home in US is around $400,000

[Likes2drive]

Yeah maybe by you but can’t buy any house here for that price, the land cost more than that in New York

[loveslongnails]

2008 crash all over again, just give it a hot minute.

[jamesgoldman]

We had 0.5% here in the UK for years, the economy just stagnated

[lightbulb27]

doubt goes that low

huge reduction in deficit

inflation

stocks go from nose bleed to brain hemorage.

[beefcakebradybatson]

Your economy goes into the loo, as Brits say.

[Snakeyes7]

I would rather the Federal Reserve disappear.

[msc545]

Of course you would. You don't think anything that helps others should exist? Just things that help. You and others who share your politics.

[888theGreat]

You would like no more elections , Trump as king. Dog away with Congress and court system. And execute all liberals , Democrats , or anyone to the left. Make black people slaves Again.

[888theGreat]

We know, you celebrated a defense woman being shot in the head

[msc545]

Also, execute anyone who doesn't have white skin.

[Snakeyes7]

@msc545 @888thegreat

I have said and done no such thing. All I want is for the US to be a high-trust society again, and it won't be as long as we keep people who see rape and general violence as morally permissible so long as it is done to the out-group from being held accountable when they commit such actions.

I am not the one making it about race. You are by associating what I described to a specific skin color (i. e. "anyone who doesn't have white skin"), but I don't give a damn, a criminal is a criminal regardless of biological factors.

Spew your magic spells to silence me all you want, it won't work because I have seen the very people you are defending.

[msc545]

By your beliefs and by your language, you are a racist through and through. You may deny your concern about skin color, but it is interesting to note that the people you want persecuted are all non-white.

[Snakeyes7]

@msc545 I have expressed no such beliefs. I don't want anyone persecuted unless they themselves have persecuted someone else extrajudicially.

[msc545]

Yeah, and all the people you've seen are anything but white. What an interesting coincidence.

[Snakeyes7]

@msc545 Even if that was the case, how would that change the fact that I want the law upheld regardless of the skin color of the criminal?

[Mike_Hum]

We should just end the fed.
