Say Hello to My Little Fed: Trump's Got Powell in His Sights!

First You Get the Money Then You Get the Power Then You Get The Fed?

Alright listen up you punks! Tony Montana here reporting live from the goddamn financial jungle. This whole situation with Trump and this Powell guy? It's like watching two pitbulls fight over a chew toy only this toy controls all the money in the damn country! Trump's calling Powell names saying he's got a 'low IQ.' I ain't never met this Powell but if Trump's got him in his crosshairs he must be doing something right... or maybe just pissing off the wrong guy. In this country you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money you get the power. Then when you get the power then you get the women. Right?

Who Do I Trust? Me! That's Who!

So Trump wants a 'shadow chair'? Sounds like something straight outta a movie. Like having a ghost whispering in your ear telling you what to do with the interest rates. He got a list of candidates they say? Some Treasury guys some economic advisors even a former Fed Governor. Bessent is supposed to be the favorite but you know how it is. These politicians they're all full of shit! I trust nobody specially these guys. You ask me Trump just wants someone who'll do what he says. He wants interest rates so low you can ski on them. You know like I did back in the 80s...

The World is Yours... or is it the Fed's?

The real problem is Trump wants to name this 'shadow chair' like yesterday. But there ain't no open positions! Some lady's term expires in 2026. So what's he gonna do fire someone? This could get messy even for a guy like me. Some strategist is saying it might not even be constitutional! Imagine that getting tangled up in the law. I know that feeling... But I always found a way to get around it you understand? The world is yours if you find the right connections

Reputational Risk? Tell That to My Little Friend!

The Fed's been busy lately changing the rules for banks. They're ditching this 'reputational risk' thing which is supposed to be good for Trump. And they're loosening up the capital rules for big banks. Sounds like someone's trying to kiss up right? But Trump's still mad about those interest rates. He probably wants to send Goolsbee my little friend and threaten him to lower them rates.

FOMC? More Like F Off My Cash!

This Goolsbee guy from the Chicago Fed says the politics don't matter they ain't thinking about elections when they decide on rates. He says look at the minutes. Minutes?! I don't got time for minutes! I got money to make! These guys are acting like they live in a goddamn bubble. But believe me everyone in this business is watching what Trump does. And if he can get a puppet to pull the strings at the Fed all the power for the president and all the big players

You Wanna Play Rough? Okay. Say Hello to My Little Rate Cut!

So what's gonna happen? Who knows! Maybe Trump gets his guy maybe Powell sticks around. But one thing's for sure: this whole thing is a damn circus. Politics money power... it's all the same game. And in this game you gotta be willing to play dirty. Because if you're not you're gonna end up like those guys I left back in Cuba... Trust me play dirty or get left behind.
