With a $37T debt would the gov. still be able to use fiscal policy to rescue the economy in an AI driven or COVID like crash?

Let’s say AI is so disruptive that millions of people lose their jobs like during COVID. Would the government be able to bridge the gap or are we so in debt that we wouldn’t be able to put together a sufficient rescue package to keep the economy afloat until we came up with viable solutions.

To make matters worse, a recession or crash would already increase gov spending and reduce revenue due to more reliance on social safety net programs.

TLDR: Are we absolutely screwed if we have a big crash and the economy needs to be bailed out?
