Trump calls for politicians to control interest rates and inflation

[g5000]

Nah. More immigration is good for inflation.

With our declining birth rate, we are going to need a lot more immigrants.


Tucker Carlson's idea of blasting our balls with laser beams isn't going to work.

 

[Natural Citizen]

Nah. More immigration is good for inflation.

 

[g5000]

Nope.

$4.4 trillion total.

Labor supply is like any other commodity. When it is limited, it’s expensive. Labor is one of the biggest drivers in the costs of goods.

Limit labor supply raises prices of domestic goods.

What else does Trump want to do? Make Americans buy domestic goods with tariffs which also raise prices.

 

[struth]

That was because the Fed refused to raise interest rates in 2021.

Rates which would have been NEGATIVE if Trump got his way.

Imagine the inflation we would have under his idiotic scheme.

Oh. You don't have to imagine. You just have to look at the inflation rates of those countries which did go negative.

Trump's an idiot, and he wants to make things worse.

Yeah that’s cause the harris xiden admin were telling us inflation was transitory! Haha

 

[g5000]

Biden was simply deferring to what the Fed was saying since they are more informed about the economy than anyone else.

The Fed was wrong. Bigly.

 

[marvin martian]

Allowing economically ignorant populists in Congress to operate the monetary money machine would be colossally stupid.

We would have an additional hyperinflationary $30 trillion washing around our country. That's a solid guarantee.

I'll bet you're excited to vote for the most pro-abortion administration in history!

Trump's Operation Warp Speed got vaccine shots in arms in 10-months, after the "experts" said it would take 4-years "if then".
You're welcome.

And then YOU morons refused to take it

Trump's Operation Warp Speed got vaccine shots in arms in 10-months, after the "experts" said it would take 4-years "if then".
You're welcome.

Research into mRNA vaccines had been going on for over a decade.

Trump opposed tracking and tracing. He called Covid a "Democrat hoax" and then held some rallies, killing Herman Cain in the process.

Then he wanted us to vaccinate with disinfectant! And shine a bright light into our bodies!

"This is the new Democrat hoax!"

February 26, 2020: "And again, when you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done."

February 28: “It’s going to disappear. One day, it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.”

"If we didn’t do any testing, we would have very few cases.”

"When it gets warm, historically, that has been able to kill the virus." The apathetic fat bastard went golfing in Florida, at taxpayer expense, the very next day.

"I take no responsibility."

"And then I said, supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or some other way, and I think you said you're going to test that, too."

"I see the disinfectant that knocks it out in a minute, one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside or almost a cleaning?"

“I had an uncle who went to MIT who is a top professor. Dr. John Trump. A genius. It’s in my blood. I’m smart.”

I've already shown the Fed's balance sheet is around $8 trillion.

Here's another chart which shows our balance sheet compared to others:

Here's something you might find interesting.

The blue line is the balance sheet-to-GDP ratio for Japan's central bank. The red line is the US ratio. Ours is about 25%. It is shocking to see Japan's is almost 130%. They've been printing money like crazy to stave off deflation.

You also said it was almost $10.5 trillion.

I said at its peak it was, but that they have been demonetizing since then.

You said the Aug 7, 2024 balance was 10,489,265 millions.

Haha I am not, do you not know how the fed works? They aren’t just gonna rise rates to raise rates, they do in response to something in the market, like inflation

 

[KissMy]

I believe he said that leaders should have input.

It's difficult to say, after all, didn't 100 "top economists" say that signing the I.R.A wouldn't contribute to inflation?

Those who signed that letter face zero consequences when they should be disbarred from speaking about economics ever again. The media who parroted their efforts are just as complicit.

Trump blames strong dollar for U.S. economy ‘going to hell’

"Trump says the dollar is too strong"

"Trump want's a weaker US dollar"

"JD Vance want's a weaker US dollar"

Over the past 40 years 100% of Republicans signed Grover Norquist pledge to drown government in debt!

Zero Republicans signed a pledge to cut spending.

Nixon took the dollar off the gold standard so Republicans could borrow, print & spend more to drown our country in inflationary debt.

Democrats actually cut deficits & inflation.

Biden / Harris policy is WINNING.

USA Inflation rate 0% May, -0.1% June & interest rate is 5.25%. Russia Inflation rate is 9.1% July & interest rate is 18% & both are rising

Record US Oil production filling SPR for over a year. Trump always drained Obama's record setting SPR. Trump NEVER added any Oil.

Obama Oil Rig Count Oct 2014 = 1593
Trump Oil Rig Count. Aug 2020 = 178
Biden. Oil Rig Count . Dec 2022 = 623

Trump wanted even way more government spending during Covid. Trump wanted more Covid checks sent out before election to buy more votes.

Trump not only increased the debt by $8 trillion, he also printed another $7 trillion in new currency to hide additional spending from increasing the debt by $14 trillion. It takes 2 years for inflation to peak after all this money creation.

55% of Trump's economy was government spending.

 

[KissMy]

It's your blind deficit creation & giving it all to the wealthy that is causing inflation & taking your power.

With only 1/3rd of his wealth, Elon Musk could buy every bushel of Corn, Soybean & Wheat the US can produce. He could literally starve you to death.

All hail our new owners with more tax cuts to rule us with.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

He's literally no different from AOC

MSN

www.msn.com

and neither has memories capable of recalling Nixon punking Arthur Burns, and the resulting 20% rates.

Yeah Trump is as wrong as Paul Krugman here. He’s very poorly advised.

Like the IRS, the Federal Reserve needs to be abolished. They are each useless vestigial appendages from a bygone era.

The Federal government should have NO SAY in setting interest rates
