Just to get this on the record, you claim that Trumps 2020 stimmies, unemployment and PPP loans has zero to do with inflation
I wrote an extensive post explaining what I thought. You seem to have comprehension problems. I wrote that if Biden had not dumped more stimmy on the fire we would have a clear picture of what the result of the Trump stimulus was. Would it have ignited inflation, and to what extent?
There was a correct amount of stimulus. How much was widely debated by economists. Whatever the right amount was we exceeded that…by a lot.
I don’t understand how you can read that and then ask the question above.
ALL of the Biden stimulus was inflationary, some of the Trump stimulus probably was, because the downside of understimulating, in that situation, is worse than the downside of overstimulating.

We would have had the inflation had the economy opened 4 months earlier, or later, and regardless of who the POTUS was.

That's why we're $39 trillion in debt.

If you want to dig through and decide which dollars contributed, be my guest. Youre gonna be frustrated and fail in the end.
You cant put 5t out there, then experience supply shocks and supply chain issues, without bad inflation.

"Guilt by association is a logical fallacy that discredits an argument or individual by linking them to a negative or disreputable entity, assuming that they share the same undesirable qualities. This fallacy ignores the actual merits of the argument or individual and relies on emotional bias against the associated entity."

Too difficult. I understand.

What would have happened with no intervention re: stimulus? Well, that was part of the recipe to lure folks from out of their homes and back into society, most importantly here, back into participating in the economy - back out shopping again, traveling/vacationing, etc etc. I guess you have to ask yourself how much longer could our economy have gone without the most important ingredient to it (human participation), had they (and their buying power) languished in their homes, leaving the streets vacant of consumers?
My opinion is that another couple of weeks without pumping hardly any fuel into the economy would have caused catastrophic and possibly irreversibly catastrophic damage and destruction. Thus the unfortunate yet critical move being discussed here was unavoidable.

The MAGA hit on Massie is evidence that Trump is a trojan horse.
Donny seems to hate fiscal responsible people who advocate non interventionism faaar more than he hates Democrats.

Virtually unarguable.
