What strategies can the president employ to deflate the dollar United States president Donald Trump has publicly declared a desire to deflate the value of the dollar.  I have read in news reports that he has asked aids to find ways to decrease the dollar's exchange rate.

I understand that attempting to influence the Fed to lower interest rates could achieve his goal of a lower exchange rate.

What are other methods a president could undertake to weaken the dollar?
Direct intervention by the U.S. Treasury in the foreign exchange market offers one option for the president.    The Treasury would use dollars to buy foreign currency bonds, bidding up the relative prices of foreign currencies and weakening the dollar.

Another option is  imposing taxes on the foreign purchase of U.S. assets as a way of weakening the dollar and reducing the trade deficit.
