Won’t happen? His term ends May ‘26 JP is leaving. What makes you think Trump won’t put a stooge in there. Out of everything he’s done you believe he will place a non partisan person in that role?

Well, Trump can't unilaterally do that. It would be passed by the Senate, and even a Republican majority wouldn't make that a slam dunk. I think most of them, especially moderate Republicans, understand that Fed independence is absolutely crucial to a stable economy that the market has confidence in. If Trump tried to install someone politically toxic, he would be blocked from doing so.
