I would say so.

The intent on Trump’s end was probably altruistic (helping people in a time of need). It was shortsighted though, as it allowed for some Leftist heavy aspects to be shoved through.
Iirc, the Post Office was bailed out in perpetuity (did they assist in the “steal?”). I believe that the teachers union in Chicago also got major money for their pensions.

Massey was correct to oppose it on principle.

The end result was a very happy swamp (Dems / RINOs).

As for it helping to steal the election, the answer is: PROBABLY.

The CARES ACT, while seemingly well intentioned, was a boondoggle.

Not to toot my own horn, but there were a few of us screaming about this at the time, and Trump tried to run my Congressman (Massie), one of the few decent ones, out of DC because of this altruistic, but short-sighted boondoggle.

At what point does it matter if it was either because of malice or incompetence. If the results are the same, does it ultimately matter what the intent was?
