National Debt - Obama Worst Ever President

[Red Wave Rising]

Apparently this known established fact needs to be repeated yet again thanks to some folks who just cannot learn.

When Obama took office the national debt was 10 Trillion and change
When Obama left office the national debt was 19.5 Trillion and change

Obama rang up as much debt as all presidents before him COMBINED.

When the economy finally implodes, you can all thank this loser Obama who was more worried about sick pervert men using your daughters' bathrooms than he was about the national economy.

As for Trump, as usual Democrats leave a destroyed military in their wake that Republicans always have to rebuild.

So you're saying that the debt increased by $9.5 trillion during Obama's 8 years in office.

Did you know that the debt increased by nearly $8 trillion during Trump's 4 years in office? Nearly the same amount in half the time.

You neglected to mention percentages. The fact is that the national debt increased 186% under Reagan, 101% under G.W. Bush, and 74% under Obama. Source:

Also, which party had majorities in the House and Senate during those years that a trillion dollars a year was added to the national debt under Obama?

Also, you neglected to mention that Trump was only in office for 4 years, whereas Obama was president for 8 years, and Trump's deficits during his 1 term in office add up to much more than half of Obama's 2-term deficits.

It's pretty much a case of just doing the math!
