Trump should have been able to establish control over the Fed simply by getting to name so many of his own guys to it.

But he is still apparently not capable of finding the right, MAGA-loyal nominees.

Trump should have been able to establish control over the Fed simply by getting to name so many of his own guys to it.

He's appointed three of the five current board members with two vacancies yet to be filled.

But he is still apparently not capable of finding the right, MAGA-loyal nominees.

I suspect he appoints whoever someone tells him to appoint, which leaves him at the mercy of whoever is doing the recommending.

Pick a teapartier, there are some very smart ones and their loyalty is assured as they are already vetted.
