Why can the US print $3 trillion USD in a short time with minimal inflation, whereas countries like Venezuela or Iraq have hyper inflation when they do similar things?

I'd recommend looking into the difference between fiscal policy and monetary police. When congress taxes people or spends money, then that's fiscal policy. If they don't have enough money on hand, then they issue debt which will be repaid at a later date. 

That is different than "printing money" which is part of monetary policy and is controlled by the Federal Reserve. 

When you hear about the $3 trillion stimulus, that's congress spending tax payer dollars (or more accurately issuing debt). It is not Congress printing $3 trillion. 

If the Federal Reserve were to print and print and print, then we, too, would eventually have hyper inflation. We had bad inflation in the late 70s early 80s.
