Sometimes a tough situation is a tough situation and there are no easy, perfect answers. This administration is trying to navigate between the economy and inflation. It doesn't look like there's any way to keep a hot economy and ease inflation. It's got to be a juggling act between the two.Trump's not relevant. Biden overspent and laughed off inflation for months. We are where we are now and will have to deal with it.
Yeah, the mistake was in overstimulating the economy in the first place. He was warned at the time by lots of economists - many from his own party. Democrats laughed it off.Sometimes a tough situation is a tough situation and there are no easy, perfect answers. This administration is trying to navigate between the economy and inflation.

See above.So the only time to be a tough critic like you're being now is when you know a much better way to handle a tough situation. So do you have such a way? Or are you just trying to make hay out of a tough situation to put the GOP back in power so they can go investigate Hunter Biden's laptop some more?
Actually, nothing to react to = overreaction.

As the second chart in post #98 shows, the government under Biden is spending less than the government under Trump spent in 2020. But to address your attack on Biden, where is Biden's huge spending spree?Trump's not relevant. Biden overspent and laughed off inflation for months. We are where we are now and will have to deal with it.
What overstimulating the economy? Your federal government put forth a program to rescue Americans hurt by job loses due to Covid. I suppose you'd prefer Americans to be in dire straights. In any case, inflation was caused predominately from unavailability of product -- that's still occurring since China, a leading supplier, has its own manufacturing difficulties.Yeah, the mistake was in overstimulating the economy in the first place.

Ask Republicans what their solution is and they say tax-cuts.The CBO. The deficit is higher than pre pandemic.
2016 -584.7
2017 -665.4
2018 -779.1
2019 -983.6
2020 -3,132.4
2021 -2,775.3
2022 -1.4T
And its only going to get worse thanks to trillions in new spending that Biden signed, if nothing changes.

So, compared to prepandemic levels, the deficit is was about 500bn higher. CBOs prediction for 2023 is 1.5 trillion deficit and 2.1 trillion by 2032. And this is without passing the full BBB spending bill or Bidens latest budget which further would have increased it per their own tables.
And this is not actually Bidens fault. Sure, he signed over 5 trillion in NEW spending since he took office, which was passed without almost any Republicans in congress, but most spending is mandatory. Healthcare accounts for almost the entire deficit. Dems and Reps have both been rubber stamping continuing spending resolution bills and massive omnibus bills which increase regular spending, and doing nothing about mandatory spending which accounts for almost all of the budget.
Biden will keep saying historic deficit reduction, but this is View attachment 67418919
Republican can't face the truth.... They proved that in 2020.... and They showed their barbarism and savagery on Jan. 6th 2021... They are still upset because they could not destroy American Democracy.
So your litmus test for a failed Precidency is increasing the national debt.Don't deflect.
Accept that Biden has failed the country.
Trump isn't president anymore.
You're desperate and it shows.
