【Federal Reserve's 'Celestial Battle': The President's Mouth, The Federal Reserve's Legs】
Trump: "Interest rates dropped too little! At least double!"
Federal Reserve (adjusting glasses): "Data speaks for itself, Mr. President, you stay to the side first."
—— As Powell is about to leave office next year, White House insider Hassett steps up to state:
1️⃣ I chat with Trump every day, but when it comes to monetary policy... (whispering) he's just a 'keen audience'.
2️⃣ Our Federal Reserve is the 'Shaolin Temple' of the economic world, the President's opinion is like a worshiper's wish—just listen and look at the data!
(Netizen's witty comment: "This is like a mom urging marriage vs you finding your own partner—can respect, but absolutely not blindly follow!")
Now the suspense is here:
🤵 Hassett himself? The front desk advisor wants to become the central bank governor?
👔 Former official Walsh? Named to 'continue being the President's human economic encyclopedia'.
The hardest-hitting quote comes from Hassett: "Are the President's words heavy? Unless they come knocking with data and reasoning, otherwise… (opens the Federal Reserve manual to page 1) 'Independent' is highlighted and bolded!"
【Outcome Prediction】
Trump (madly hinting at interest rates) vs Federal Reserve (fixated on inflation data)
—— The final outcome of this American-style dialogue:
✅ Either the President tweets another 'bad review!'
✅ Or the Federal Reserve pulls out Excel: 'Do you think this curve is reasonable?'
