American Tax Officer

Chapter 880: Chapter 441: Election Year Chapter 880: Chapter 441: Election Year “All right, since that’s the case, I’m in!”

“I’m in too!”

“I’m in!”

“Sorry, Inspector David, I think I’m still not up to the task…”

“Me too…”

“…”

In the subsequent period, most of these financial elites expressed their willingness to join the team, with only two or three people still harboring reservations and opting out.

David did not trouble those who were unwilling to join too much, respecting their choices.

Thus, a preliminary team focused on the nationalization of the Federal Reserve was established!

And their various tasks commenced the very next day!

…

Time moved to the third day.

Trump and his daughter came to David’s office, where the former said, “Inspector David, I heard that you’ve established a team concerning the nationalization of the Federal Reserve?”

Recently, people from the Internal Revenue Service were lobbying countries worldwide, and a lot of rumors had been circulating domestically, all of which he had seen and heard.

“That’s right.”

“But Inspector David, as we discussed before, about nationalizing the Federal Reserve during my term, you see…”

Turning the Federal Reserve into a national entity, something even Kennedy hadn’t achieved, and such a significant accomplishment, naturally, Trump worried it would fall into Katherine’s lap.

“The Federal Reserve is vast, nationalizing it isn’t something that can be done immediately, I’m just doing the preliminary work for now, drafting and submitting to Congress will take at least a year or even more.”

David wasn’t just placating Trump since, after the formation of the nationalization team, the schedules provided by the team indeed entailed at least a year or two of comprehensive work.

“That’s good!”

Relieved by this news, Trump and his daughter breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Ivanka soon thought of something else and turned to ask, “By the way, Inspector David, I heard that there have been substantial movements from the White House side, next year being the election year and all, our agreement, it won’t be affected, will it?”

They came mainly for two things today.

The first was concerning the timing of the Federal Reserve’s nationalization.

And the second was about next year’s election.

Earlier, David had agreed with them that he would fully support their ascent in ’24.

However, due to significant changes at the White House, with Payden stepping down leading to Katherine unexpectedly taking office, and after experiencing the presidency, how could Katherine willingly let go?

From recent actions of the White House, they could tell, because of David’s involvement, the two sides could not confront each other directly, but the covert battles would undoubtedly be intense.

Of course, everything hinged on whom David would ultimately support!

“Don’t worry, since I promised you, I will support you!”

“That is more than great!”

With this firm response, the father and daughter once again breathed a massive sigh of relief.

…

In the following days, the work regarding the nationalization of the Federal Reserve progressed methodically, and David entered the longest ‘hibernation period’ since his rise.

This was unusual for the American people.

Since David’s rise, every ten days or half a month, he would make some significant news, whether leading armed forces somewhere, apprehending a major drug lord, or conducting a major crackdown on tax evaders in a state.

Since the midterm elections, however, there hadn’t been any significant action for a good half a year, which naturally made most people uneasy.

That tranquil period continued until January 1, 2024.

On this day, in a meeting hall at the Capitol Hill Grand Hotel, a fierce argument broke out.

“In the more than half-year since President Katherine has been in office, her accomplishments are visible to all, so I support President Katherine to continue governing the White House!”

“Yes, according to preliminary public opinion polls, the public support rate for President Katherine is as high as 56 percent, which is what the populace wishes, so I support President Katherine!”

“During her time in office, President Katherine managed to preserve our prestige in Europe and stabilized the negative effects brought about by the unrest of The Big Three Groups, which merits her continued governance!”

“…”

“Heh, just introduced a few beneficial policies, I thought she had taken down the Federal Reserve!”

In the hall were members of the Senate and House of Representatives, officials from various departments, people from the Ansa Group and the Illuminati, as well as state big shots.

Also present were David’s camp members like Sean, Trump, and Katherine.

The last one to speak, making the sarcastic remark, was none other than Trump’s loyal supporter, Musk!

“Musk, what do you mean by that?”

On hearing the sarcastic remark, the ones who had just supported Katherine felt extremely angry, and although Katherine herself did not comment, a hint of quiet fury appeared on her face.

As the election drew near, so the covert rivalry between Katherine and Trump gradually intensified.

Their gathering there today was actually intended to initiate a debate and gauge the internal support within the group for each candidate.

“No particular meaning, just what the words imply!”

“You…”

“Alright!”
