Her signature legislation (not passed) was to give every single person $2,000 per month during COVID. You saw what the $600 per person on 3 payments did to inflation, imagine $2,000 per month…
Meh. Quadrupling the money supply was the major driver. Only a small portion of that was paid out as covid stimulus. The vast majority was injected into the banking system, where it reared its head as inflation exactly 18 months later, just as the good professor Friedman told us it would some 70 years ago.

Am I missing something? M2 is the money supply, right?

M1 is the actual amount of money in circulation. Cash/Coins/Checking Accounts/Actual spendable money.
M2 is M1 Plus timed deposits. Money Market Accounts, CD, etc...

And why was it injected into the M1?

Trump's lying (substantially more than usual compared to his fellow swamp politicians) is one reason I have been unable to vote for him since 2016
So, in terms of lying, we're arguing about price, amirite? I find Walz's lying about something much more substantial disqualifying.
adultery
Harris.
if it was Trump vs a threat to America (like Sanders on steroids), I'd vote for Trump,
Remember, Harris was found, as a senator, to be to the left of Bernie.

Trump lied about his former support for the Iraq war. Seems pretty substantial to me.

With all due respect, I think you've just become used to how Trump speaks over the last 8 years... the number of falsehoods, made-up facts, "many people have told me" excuses, and exaggerations is almost impossible to keep track of.
Actually someone did keep track.
30,573 false or misleading claims between 2017 and 2021.

I know.. WaPo, but the full database is open, you can download the CSV file, it's about as auditable as you can get. Heck, let's start at the very beginning about his inauguration crowd size being bigger than Obama's.

So, you believe the 2020 election was stolen based on unanimously rejected claims, but when there's a completely transparent and auditable trail of false or misleading claims by Trump, you don't believe it.
I've said it a billion times. I'm a conservative, as you are. Imagine how you'd react if it was Obama instead of Trump and the coronavirus fumbles, election denial, January 6th, and database of false claims. I'd be reacting the same, would you?
Ok, I lied. I haven't said it a billion times, maybe a few dozen.

No, I believe the election was stolen based on personal experience with stolen elections. The 2020 election had multiple warning signs that screamed ballot finagling.
I also think - and this is readily apparent - the kid glove treatment of Basement Biden and the Dems changing rules to facilitate massive mail-in voting (and ballot harvesting) - is also tantamount to stealing an election.
