HASSETT: AS FED CHAIR I WOULD BE APOLITICAL ….. Yeah , and I’m the next Pope

Ignored

The fact he has even stated this portrays a sorry state of affairs.
Considering he wants the gig and he knows what Donald likes in an employee… the statement rings all too loud

Looks like we're in for lower interest rates and the DXY index at .80 by around election time 2028. That won't be good for U.S. inflation.

He could agree with Miran, or in his absence, his economic rationalism for a substantial decrease in the FFR. He would be applying economics to the situation. No politics in that.

Well, I suppose doing what you are told isn’t actually a political issue. He didn’t say he would be data dependent. So he can just lower no matter what and that’s not political, it’s just ignoring the data. If you believe the debt is a huge issue you can’t really argue against lowering rates. The ill effects of too low rates could be far less than default.

irony of his words. Trump is putting someone who will do exactly what he wants. Of course the media will not respond to his comment with what i said. Hell would freeze over.
