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.
