The inflation is caused by a conglomeration of things, and mostly not from us giving out stimulus. Trump is a clown but he didn't cause the inflation.
The inflation is supply side. That means it's caused by reduced stuff, not increased money. The Russian war caused oil to skyrocket and that caused a significant amount of the inflation.
Wrong. Just... wrong. Too wrong to care to fix. You cannot say, "it's complicated, buuuuut it's this other thing and TOTALLY not the other partt of the equation!"
You are dumb if you think it is supply side only. Purely, utterly stupid.
