On August 2, news reported by Jin10 indicated that Federal Reserve Board of Governors member Kuggler unexpectedly announced his resignation on Friday, providing President Trump with an opportunity to fill the Federal Reserve vacancy earlier than expected, which may also force him to finalize the next chairman candidate months in advance. Derek Tang, an economist at monetary policy analysis firm LHMeyer, stated, "The ball is now in Trump's court; he has been pressuring the Fed, claiming he wants to install his own people. Now the opportunity has come." Although Powell's term as chairman ends in May next year, his term as a board member lasts until 2028. If Powell does not voluntarily resign from his board position, Trump will have no chance to fill the vacancy before 2028. In this case, Trump may be forced to use the proposed chairman candidate to fill Kuggler's vacancy. Tobin Marcus, head of American policy and political strategy at Wolf Research, pointed out: "The key is that this is the only position vacancy Trump can manipulate. If he wants to look for the next chairman from outside the Fed, the nomination may be revealed sooner."
