Fixing supply chain issues will take a long time.
How lucky for GOP it didn't happen on their watch.
They'd wait for the free market to solve the problem -
eventually.

Don't expect any help from GOP - that would be a win for
Biden!   Unless of course Trump approves.  Don't expect any
help from Manchin or Sinema - that would be inflationary!
Unless of course enough major donors approve.

“We are not going to assemble iPhones in the US”

Reshoring is more complicated than offshoring because it
doesn't pay for itself.

Why would an older person want to go back to work in order
to be infected by careless young unvaccinated maskless
Trumpists?

Persuadable voters are persuaded more by simple theories
than complicated facts.      So most politicians pander
to them.      That much is bipartisan.

Increasing political production.

50 million barrels is about five days of American
production, less than one day of global production.
It won't make much difference.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_oil_production

But politicians need to APPEAR to do something.

What kind of inflation do you prefer?

From product shortages due to lack of transport - or From
rising transport costs?

to solve supply chain problems.  That's the last thing on
their minds!  How could they blame Biden if they solved
his problems for him?

Traditional demand-side inflation might be addressed
by traditional means - higher taxes and higher interest
rates -

https://nytimes.com/2021/11/16/opinion/biden-inflation-spending-manchin.html

GOP doesn't want to fix inflation - it improves their
prospects in 2022.

Tired of cancelled flights?

Expect to pay more for reliable service.     Flight
attendants, like restaurant servers, are tired of fighting
unruly passengers without combat pay.
