Did not abandon his trade war....didn't come close to balancing the budget. Unless 8 trillion more debt in 4 years is now considered good by Trump lovers!

But yes, you can't blame inflation entirely on the American Rescue Plan. It was just one of a number of factors. Like supply chain glitches and higher prices caused by the tariffs. Tariffs that Biden could remove with a stroke of his pen. But he hasn't, at least yet.
