The more the Fed bungles inflation, the more we need Trump tax cuts.

You know what’s bothering the stock market? The Federal Reserve has no monetary compass and there is still confusion about whether the Trump tax cuts will be delayed.

There is no growth strategy right now in the political system. And there is no King Dollar end to Bidenflation in the monetary system, so no wonder stocks are falling day after day.

The Dow plunged more than 1,100 points today — the tenth straight daily decline, which is the largest drop since 1974. And like I said nothing good happened in America in 1974.

In the last days of the 118th Congress, Democrats are still pushing for incredible spending boondoggles and slush funds — and Republicans haven’t yet figured out their tax and border reconciliation strategy for next year when they take over.

The Fed has once again misread the economy as inflation in recent months has gone up not down and consumer spending has been stronger than they thought.

Most of the stimulus coming from President Biden’s $2 trillion-a-year deficit finance and the Fed keeps monetizing.

Confusion reigns.

The Trump stock market honeymoon at least temporarily has been broken.

There have been many rumors that the president wants one big beautiful reconciliation package that includes tax cuts and border security, but it’s still in the rumor stage and no deal has yet been hammered out with the White House and Senate leadership.

The Fed has now decided only two rate cuts next year instead of four. And they’re now predicting higher inflation.

The market and the Fed have become the helpless led by the clueless.

A sad state of affairs.

They bungled the jumbo rate cut in September and they bungled the quarter point rate cut in today’s December cut. They bungled the November rate cut.

They bungled the forecast. They bungled managing their own balance sheet.

And by the way they forced a 20 percent price increase for middle America over the past four years with never any  hopes of prices ever easing lower because of their mistaken and misguided models.

They should get rid of their excess money by chopping down the balance sheet by several trillion dollars. Yet they’re not doing that.

And of course Biden-Schumer politics continues to spend insanely.

Now, President Trump can fix all this.

He’s going to move a tax cut bill — the question is just when.

The DOGE brothers — also known as Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy — are going to dismantle the regulatory state and chop down government spending.

Again… It’s just a question of when.

Closing the border and deporting illegals to end the crime spree — that’s coming too… it’s just a question of when.

Only now we have to consider how to get next year’s economy into a blue-collar boom — in 2025.

I’m not worried about  2026. I’m not worried about 2027. I’m worried about 2025, which starts in a few weeks.

The problem is solvable: cut taxes immediately, along with spending and deregulation, merge that with a border-closing package, into one big fat reconciliation bill — and get it done in the next 100 or 120 days.

That will fatten middle-class wallets, rejuvenate business investment,  and deliver the blue-collar boom that Trump promised to his working-class coalition.
