I hear you on Trump but note that POTUS has full access to the IRS records. Except he doesn’t and that is an official executive branch agency, unlike the Fed. Besides, ideally you’d be able to get a foreign central bank account too.

He hasn’t asked for it. I strongly doubt if he can control the Fed and FTC that the IRS will somehow be a red line.

Oh goodie, what I need in my life is the CCP being able to blackmail me.

		I mean don’t open an account in China? And this doesn’t preclude private banking. You can pay a private bank to manage your money, just that you also have a public option. I don’t really want to go down a full political rabbit hole but Trump can ask for whatever he wants. If you look at all the cases in the federal courts currently they all are basically figuring out just how much of what he has tried is actually legal and mostly finding that very little of it is. As a result you’ll see headlines like “Trump requests JumpCrisscross’s medical records and bank statements” on the front page of CNN but you won’t see the headline on page six that reads “Trump appointed judge laughed the FBI’s lawyers out of the court room for making a stupid request.”
