Trump signed the $2T Covid package and the deficit increased every year under him. Iโ€™m not saying Biden or whoever is in charge didnโ€™t continue these inflationary policies, and his energy policy also made it worse, but Trump is also responsible for a lot of the inflation.

Inflation was 1.8% when Trump left office. Over 10% under Biden, and gas prices doubled and tripled, groceries prices over 30%, etc. The point is Biden didnโ€™t print money like a drunken sailor after he got into office, we wouldnโ€™t have this high of inflation.

I absolutely agree that if Biden didnโ€™t print as crazy as he did price inflation wouldnโ€™t be as high.

My point is just that Trump should also be blamed for a lot of it, especially what happened shortly after Biden took office. The effect (price inflation), is delayed as the new money works its way through the markets. In Trumpโ€™s last year the deficit was the highest it has ever been.

You still donโ€™t get it and Iโ€™m too lazy to repeat myself.

Fair enough, thereโ€™s probably a lot more productive stuff we could both be doing anyway
