but printing so much during covid came back to bite us in the ass too

And do you think Biden was unique in needing to spend money to deal with Covid? That some other option could have miraculously solved the problem for free?

This is what I mean when I say that the things that are most remarkable about Biden are more a matter of circumstance than anything he can/should be credited with. Anything related to Covid? It was a global pandemic, not anything unique to America or his administration. The global inflation crisis? Again, that's a global thing (it's in the name), driven largely by corporations trying to recapture some of the highs they had during Covid's peak and/or make up Covid-induced losses (with a little sprinkling of oil companies using the Russia-Ukraine war as an excuse to double the price of gas for no reason). Biden's stuck managing these crises, and there's plenty of room to praise/criticize that handling, but to suggest that he's responsible for OPEC jacking up gas prices is too myopically naive to even belong on Fox News, let alone coming out of the mouth of anyone that wants to pretend they know what they're talking about.
