I just provided lots of links to what has transpired the past year and you are of course giving your opinion.

I believe that the SCOTUS smackdown on his threats to fire Lisa Cook has put a damper on whether any of that happens (i.e., either before the Chair term is up or after), but that remains to be seen due to the corporate push back of him fucking with the monetary system in that manner, and he somewhat responds to that with the endless TACO cycles when his revenge cycle hasn't kicked in again.
