I can argue that "bidenomics" (printing money) was started by Trump

Lol, ok.

By the same logic, I can argue that "bidenomics" (printing money) started when the Federal Reserve was formed, in 1913. Or that it started when the FED closed the gold window in 1971.

Though all three of those arguments would be reductive and stupid, and I'm sure we're both above that, so let's not.

But really, reconsider your sources, because they're lying to you.

you can check derivative of the debt growing curve, there are 2 clear shifts in 2008 and 2020, which both happened because of specific policies applied.

Not plausibly can you argue that either of those things (which are not synonyms) were started by Trump (one started earlier, the other later.)

I totally can, you can disagree of course.

> I totally can

Okay, then make the argument, rather than just allude to your abstract ability to do so.

government printed lots of money which slightly relaxed economy issues but have many negative long term consequences: debt, hit on well being of bottom 50% of population, bigger wealth gap which will be abused by rich.
