On top of that, IIRC the student loan aid was executive action alone (i.e. Biden specifically enacted it) while the pandemic checks were passed by congress so at best Trump might be able to say he pushed for it but it was still congress that made it happen.
I’m less ick on Biden because he campaigned on student loan relief.
So I see this as more of a “hey, remember that promise I made? Well here’s me making good on my word.”
For contrast, trump " hey remember that pandemic I allowed to become a massive issue before doing anything about? Well here’s some money, have fun. "
