Obama inherited a 1.2 trillion dollar deficit and 750k job losses per month from Bush.
Trump has no excuse for causing more debt, he inherited a good economy and shrinking deficits from Obama.
Regardless of what he 'inherited' the National Debt rose ten trillion in eight years. If we would apply the same logic to President Trump's first year; he actually saved us $600 billion! Of course you do not want our President to blame any of his debt on his predecessor - but it's fine if you blame President Bush.
I really don't know how anyone in the right mind votes Republican. The hypocrisy and double-standard, sorry not for me.
You'd better not be voting for the democrats then if that's your standard, or are you a typical liberal hypocrite? If democrats didn't have double standards they'd have none at all.
Don't worry, don't worry. We have a smart, successful businessman at the helm who will cut that deficit and we will end up with a surplus. Just watch !
(My new years resolution is to be positive about everything !)

Annual deficits are creeping up to $1 trillion a year and the national debt has topped $20 trillion. On Monday, Treasury said that the United States will need to borrow $441 billion in privately-held debt this quarter, the largest sum since 2010 when the economy was emerging from the worst downturn since the Great Depression.
You would have a valid point if growth remained ****ty, as it has for the past couple decades, but this isn't the past couple decades.

The 4 highest years for debt had Harry & Nancy running the Congress & Senate. Latest projection for 2018 is that it will go down to $440B (still too high). Anyway, have fun with this fantasy until reality comes in different and then you can make up a new story.
