The allies of Republican presidential candidate #Donald_Trump are drafting proposals that would attempt to erode the #Federal_Reserve’s independence if he wins, the #WallStreet Journal reported on Thursday, citing people familiar with the matter.
A small group of the former #president’s allies has produced a nearly 10-page document outlining a policy vision for the c#entral_bank, according to the report.
The group argues that Trump should be consulted on rate decisions and would have the authority to remove Jerome Powell as Fed Chair before his term ends in 2026, the report added.
#Trump had picked Powell in 2017 to lead the #usacentral bank but turned against him soon after. He said in February that he would not reappoint Powell and believed the Fed chief would lower interest rates to help President #Joe #Biden’s prospects for re-election.
The Journal said it could not determine if the former president was aware of or signed off on the effort, but some people close to the discussions believe the work has received his blessing.
The former president has had informal discussions with advisers about possible candidates to lead the Fed and has asked associates whether they would be interested in the job, the report said.
The #Trump campaign played down the report on Friday, sharing an earlier statement with Reuters in response.
“Let us be very specific here: unless a message is coming directly from President Trump or an authorized member of his campaign team, no aspect of future presidential staffing or policy announcements should be deemed official,” the statement from campaign co-chairs #Chris #LaCivita and #Susie #Wiles said.
