Trump signed into law the 2.2 trillion dollar CARES ACT. As if that wasn't enough, he also signed into law the 900 billion dollar Consolidated Appropriations Act. $3,100,000,000,000 of additional spending in one year.

Remarks by President Trump at Signing of H.R.748, The CARES Act: “Well, thank you all very much. This is a very important day. I’ll sign the single-biggest economic relief package in American history and, I must say, or any other package, by the way. It’s twice as large as any relief ever signed. It’s $2.2 billion, but it actually goes up to 6.2 — potentially — billion dollars — trillion dollars. So you’re talking about 6.2 trillion-dollar bill.”

Now, Trump is trying to portray himself as a fiscal conservative. What hubris.

Biden thinks he sent out $8,000 checks to every American.

Did you and your spouse get $16,000 free?

I was hoping someone besides me would point that out. Trump is a big spender too. Remember how he lost us the two GA Senate seats by trashing the GOP on the eve of the run off elections, criticizing the GOP for not spending more in the third Covid relief bill?

This happened as a consequence of the pandemic, at a time when it was unclear how the response to Covid was going to go. I agree that it was a mistake, but the economic effects of Covid were huge in the beginning (we're still feeling them).
