Joe Biden actually said this week that the $1.9 trillion "COVID relief" package passed some six weeks ago is responsible for the American economic "recovery" and the media didn't even comment on that lie. I call it a lie because Aside from the first part of the stimulus checks that went out electronically, none -- NONE-- of the items in the COVID relief package have yet been put into action. In other words, less than 10% of the package has been carried out. There's literally no way that this could have had much effect. In addition, most of the economic data at the moment is from March or earlier. April hasn't ended yet. That means that the vast bulk of the data which shows whether or not the economy has "recovered" deals with a period BEFORE the relief package was even passed.
The point is that there is no way to honestly credit the COVID package with the current status of the economy. No way! None!
This is not difficult to understand, but the media just ignores the blatant lying by the president.
