This is stupid Supreme Court style horse race reporting inapplicable to the Fed. First, the entire point of this situation is that legislative ability to insulate agencies from the President has been decimated. Why would that suddenly disappear if a Democrat got into office? Second,pass legislation!

The United States is in a situation that you cannot legislate your way out of, because there is one of the two viable parties who are not playing the same game. The entire GOP is compromised. Top to bottom at this point. Democrats haven't figured this out yet.

Well I don't think there's anything that can make the Fed immediately reduce interest rates to zero with the resulting 10-20% inflation, dollar crash, and international flight from treasuries, no matter who is on the board Trump might get a point or two out of his picks, that's all

Because the Supreme Court will say well actually it doesn’t work if it’s a Democrat and suck on deez nutz. Which they have repeatedly done.

I mean, if that's the angle they are going for they should say that. This is an extremely generous explanation.

They’ve done it repeatedly. Loan relief was Biden over reach for instance. While Trump does whatever with his imperial powers.

What I am saying is there's a difference between reporting intent and your personal thoughts.

It appears both mainstream journalists and Americans are incapable of complex thought that involves facts
