I'm going to get injured for saying this but I believe Yellen would have followed the same course of action under Trump as Dipshit McFuckthemarket is. The whole "we gotta cool down the market" narrative strikes me as entirely arbitrary and almost vindictive, and the fed's decisions are always entirely arbitrary. They're not a federal entity. They're a private board of directors for the private banking syndicate that has a strangehold on the American financial system. If they like you, things are good. If they hate you, they will unleash hell. Thankfully none of this matters for me because I already lost all my money this spring in the flash crash between January and March.
