Trump is considering Kevin Warsh as the next Fed Chair. This would please his lifelong friend Ronald Lauder, Warsh's father-in-law. But, Lauder and Epstein once belonged to the same foreign policy discussion group. Choosing Warsh to be Fed Chair might induce conspiracy theorists to connect the dots between the Lauder-Epstein acquaintance and the Trump-Epstein friendship, even if there’s no link between these random dots. With the Epstein file now President Trump’s worst issue in terms of public disapproval, Warsh may no longer be a safe pick as Fed Chair because Ronald Lauder is his father-in-law and Lauder once crossed paths with Jeffrey Epstein. Do you agree? Or do you think that Trump can manage economic policy separately from the Epstein file? Warsh cares about his place in history and wouldn't be the worst pick as Fed Chair. Other candidates are so loyal to Trump that they would be worse — e.g., Kevin Hassett. Who do you think Trump should choose?

  1. Had he lived, Trump probably would have made Epstein Secretary of Commerce. . .
