Yes and no, The reason there was no commensurate consumer spending to keep things in equilibrium was because supply could not keep up with demand. However, inflation does not mean simply price increases. It means excess money supply.

And on cue you go back to partisan propaganda. The vast majority of the money supply was in the economy before the Inauguration. In fact, if Trump had had his way, the $2000 stimulus checks (instead of $600) would have been in the mail before the election. The last stimulus bill was sold as fulfilling Trump's promises. Your whole paragraph is propaganda framing. It comes from nowhere else People have shown you time and again that you are factually wrong. But here are are again spreading the same garbage. The effort to continually refute your propaganda is exponentially greater that your effort to spread it.

Trump did not solve problems. He created them, and then took credit for solving problems he created. The only senseless obstruction to problem solving has been on the part of the GOP. They still don't have any plans for a world class US health care system, the one Trump promised would be ready day one of his presidency after the GOP vigorously obstructed Dem efforts for eight years

Do you hear yourself? There is nothing objective about what you wrote. It is all entirely laden with loaded emotional framing. The projection is strong with you. The GOP has had plenty of time to show themselves capable of objective pragmatic common sense solutions, but have done none of that. They certainly are not running on any such proposals. You have made a huge number of generalized assertions, but you cannot support any of them with actual facts divorced from their original context.

But here is the bottom line. Trump, along with his GOP collaborators tried to implement the Eastman plan to, in his own words, "overturn the election" by "changing the outcome." The purpose was to get himself installed unconstitutionally, like a dictator, for a second term. This is now beyond dispute. Therefore, no one who is a patriot supports Trump or any Trump-adjacent candidates. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-vHQnQ_x5Y
