    You’re talking about if it would make rational sense to lower them…

    I’m thinking it’s more likely trump somehow seizes power of the fed

      If that happens the economy will break and buying a house will become even more difficult rather than easier. There’s no scenario where Trump seizing the Fed makes housing more affordable.

        It wouldn’t.

        But a crash in real estate would make him want low interest rates for him to capitalize with.

        Like, you’re still acting like we’re talking about if it should happen.

        We’re talking about if trump will do something, and he mostly does dumb shit that’s the opposite of what he should be doing
