Will Trump End The Fed?
Posted December 3, 2024
A new Macro Watch video has just been released, and it tackles one of the most provocative questions in economic policy today: Will President Trump End the Fed?
As President Trump prepares to reenter the White House with unprecedented political leverage, could he attempt to take control of monetary policy? This Macro Watch video explores two controversial paths he might pursue:
1. Subjugating the Federal Reserve: Could the President bend the Fed to his will and compel it to cut interest rates or resume Quantitative Easing, even as inflation rises?
2. Issuing Treasury Currency: Could the Treasury bypass the Fed entirely by issuing its own fiat currency, as it did in the 19th century? This would not only challenge the Fed’s independence but could also transform the U.S. financial system as we know it.
In this video, I analyze the potential economic and political consequences of these scenarios.
I also explain how these actions might enable the President to achieve his ambitious policy objectives, including high tariffs, mass deportations, and tax cuts—all while weakening the dollar.
But there’s a catch. History suggests that these moves could come at a steep cost—one that America may or may not be willing to bear.
This is a video you won’t want to miss.
