Original Note:
The tweet is missing important context. The deficit fell in 2021 primarily due to a drop in COVID relief spending. Had the Administration not passed the American Rescue Plan Act, which cost $1.9 trillion, in April 2021, the drop would have been even larger. https://www.factcheck.org/2022/04/bidens-deficit-spin/ https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/05/09/politics/fact-check-biden-deficit-reduction/index.html
