Demanding the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates! Trump's $400 billion scheme, a lifeline for $38 trillion in US debt? 一起聊聊吧！
With $38 trillion in debt looming, $2 million in interest needs to be repaid every minute! The Federal Reserve just lowered interest rates by 25 basis points, and Trump angrily criticized it as 'too slow', demanding to double the rate cuts—this isn't saving the economy, it's clearly a fiscal self-rescue to 'extend the life' of $38 trillion in debt!
The truth lies in the shocking interest bill: by 2025, US government interest payments will soar to $1.4 trillion, accounting for 26.5% of fiscal revenue, far exceeding military spending. For every 1 percentage point drop in interest rates, nearly $400 billion in interest can be saved, which is the core calculation behind Trump's insistence on rate cuts. To achieve this, he not only berates Powell as a 'fool' but also directly intervenes in Federal Reserve personnel, nominating radical rate-cutting directors and dismissing independents, treating the central bank as a tool for resolving debt.
This 'fiscal dominance' is destroying the century-long independence of the Federal Reserve. Moody's has downgraded the US credit rating, warning that debt and interest expenditures far exceed similar-rated countries; Deutsche Bank has further warned that the risk of runaway inflation is sharply rising. What's worse, the cost of rate cuts is ultimately borne by ordinary people: savings returns are suppressed, asset prices are pushed up, wealth gaps are widening, and financial bubbles continue to expand.
The US has long been trapped in a 'borrowing new to repay old' deadlock, and interest expenditures could reach up to $14 trillion in the next decade, with mandatory spending reaching 78% by 2035. Trump's demand for rate cuts is merely pushing today's debt to tomorrow, using dollar credit to cover fiscal overdrafts.
Do you think the Federal Reserve will yield to political pressure? Will the $38 trillion in US debt ultimately drag down the dollar hegemony?
