'One of the biggest spenders': Former Trump aide blames ex-president for current inflation

Donald Trump was one of the biggest spending presidents of all time, and he helped cause the current inflation numbers, according to a former official from his administration on Wednesday.

Former Homeland Security official Miles Taylor, who has claimed his home was targeted by a break-in shortly after he published a scathing "Anonymous" op-ed about Trump's presidency, Wednesday evening appeared on MSNBC's The 11th Hour with Stephanie Ruhle. He was asked about the revisionist history of Trump and the GOP.

After discussing revisionist history associated with Jan. 6, Taylor add that there was "a lot of revisionist history about what happened" under Trump, "including extraordinary levels of federal spending that happened under Donald Trump that drove inflation."

"As a conservative it was something that was immensely frustrating to me during the Trump administration, is he promised a smaller government but instead was one of the biggest spenders, if not the biggest spender in American history," Taylor said on the show. "A lot of what we've dealt with in terms of inflation started during the Trump years."
