COVID relief is no excuse for Trump's spending. The spending bills that Trump signed into law during his first two years in office (2017-2018) added $4 trillion to the debt. That was before the COVID pandemic hit in 2020.I was against the COVID relief. And the Obama relief.
Regardless, you fail to criticize Biden inflationary spending.
Trump is to blame too for sure. He lit the fire but then Biden came in and started pouring gasoline on it. I want the credit card taken away from both partiesTell me that you do understand how the fiscal policy of the Trump administration was highly inflationary, at a time when the economy did not need fiscal stimulus ... and I might not think that you are ignorant.

Trump’s Inflation
Trump’s 2017 tax cuts helped set stage for today’s inflation. Doubling down will make things worse.

The price of everything in America may be about to go up
^^^^ Written the day after Trump won the 2016 election. ^^^^
I'll help. 8 trillion. The largest debt in history.
https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/datasets/debt-to-the-penny/debt-to-the-pennyThen how much did he add?
Trump did not add $4T in 2017-2018
BS with 4T for 2 years pre COVID
Post COVID $1.4T in Bidens first FY term. Let's see how 2023 looks.
Regardless arguing over the size of turds.
PolitiFact - Joe Biden blames Donald Trump for one quarter of today’s debt, ignores context
I am not your google foo. He made the declaration, let him prove it
Federal budget: Trump adds $4 trillion to national debt, watchdog says
I said that with the spending bills that Trump signed into law during his first two years in office, which were in 2017 and 2018, he added an additional $4 trillion to the debt ... and that is accurate.
That was not an opinion piece.BS. An opinion piece and hypothetical piece of legislation. Doesn't prove squat.
He did not incur $4Tin 2017-2018.
Stop with the nonsense.
How about putting some effort into Biden..he exempt? Or maybe DC has a spending problem
Hence if you are so concerned about spending lets focus on TODAY
That was not an opinion piece.
USA Today was utilizing data from the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, who I have also linked on this very page. Donald Trump absolutely did add $4.1 trillion to the National Debt with spending bills that he signed into during his first two years in office. That is a fact.
