No, but it is Trump's fault that people abused PPP because he and his "very fine people" opposed any oversight, probably because they all got PPP loans that were forgiven without any of them even making a single payment towards the balance.

NOT ONE OF THEM TRIED TO PAY ANY OF IT BACK.

Unlike student loan borrowers who were paying those loans back, not one single PPP loan recipient even made an effort to repay even $0.01 of the loan they got:

Which Democrats received PPP loans?
Republicans aren't the only ones that received PPP loans. Many Democrats (including their spouses) profited off PPP loans and benefited from the forgiveness too:

Senator Jeanne Shaheen
Rep. Matt Cartwright
Rep. Susie Lee
Speaker Nancy Pelosi
Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell
Rep. Devin Nunes

Nancy Bass Wyden, wife of Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Oregon), received a $2.7 million PPP loan.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-California) partially owns a California hotel that received PPP loan money. The former law firm of Rep. Matt Cartwright (D-Pennsylvania), where Cartwright’s wife worked throughout the pandemic, received a PPP loan. The husband of Rep. Susie Lee (D-Nevada) helms a regional casino that received one.

Feds accuse five IRS employees of scamming COVID relief loans

But we will get 87,000 more potential thieves to audit you.

"The Justice Department announced fraud charges Tuesday against five current or former IRS employees in Tennessee whom prosecutors say stole money from the government’s pandemic relief programs.

The Washington Times has reported on a striking number of cases involving government employees, including those who worked in state unemployment agencies or at the U.S. Postal Service, and who used their posts to further their fraud."

Estimates are that a good 20% of COVID spending was pure fraud.
 
Nothing to see here. Only $250 million taxpayer dollars were paid out for millions of meals served in 2021 in one state, and the government checks just kept rolling in.


Wife of Minneapolis Council Member Jamal Osman leads nonprofit with ties to fraud case

"Minneapolis City Council Member Jamal Osman's wife founded a nonprofit that reported feeding thousands of needy children through a federal nutrition program now under scrutiny for alleged fraud.

According to state filings, Osman's wife, Ilo Amba, incorporated Urban Advantage Services in November 2020. In Minnesota Department of Education documents the nonprofit is among 213 sites sponsored by Partners in Nutrition — a St. Paul-based organization that was one of the top sponsors of the federal meals program in Minnesota.

Another top sponsor, Feeding Our Future, is at the center of what prosecutors say was a $250 million fraud scheme, with the first charges rolling out in the past month."
