So you’re saying the previous administration and Congress didn’t have a role?
Because off the top of my head, I could a name a few things that contributed to the current situation in the US:
- Trump imposes tougher oil sanctions on Venezuela (2019)
- Poor early response to COVID-19 (causing massive demand destruction)
- Trump signs $2.2T stimulus bill (Mar 2020)
- Trump signs $900B coronavirus relief bill (Dec 2020)
Given that Biden has been in office for a little over 500 days, I think you give him too much credit for events that have unfolded so far, events caused by many moving parts that have been years in the making.
The current sitting president just gets to be the “lucky” one who has to deal with it.
