I agree with your overall point. I think the institutions of the US actually do provide important checks on Trump that force him to be less "fash-y" (as the kids are saying) that he brands himself throughout a campaign. However, I'd be curious about your characterization of the Biden administration's economics: what happens if those bills aren't passed? Should they have been more limited/targeted/smaller in scope? Should there have been no spending bills at all? It's unhelpful to simply say "the results of inflation were bad" when there are numerous possible alternatives-worse.

I didn't understand your point the first time this was published, and REALLY don't know what you're getting at today.
