And what if President Carter had not appointed Volcker Fed chair? President Carter appointed Paul Volcker specifically to end inflation. That was the entire reason for his appointment. You're suggesting it is just a happy coincidence that Volcker completed the task? What you are obsessing about, the timeline, is entirely irrelevant, except for the fact that Carter likely knew very well it would cost him the White House, and yet he appointed Volcker anyway. So your insistence on fallacy that the timing is paramount only speaks against your argument.
