        I'm sure the conservatives will blame former President Obama.

        Haha! I’m just stating facts, my friend. This headline is lousy. The debt is still going up under Trump, yes. But let’s not act like Obama did anything to qwell the steady progression those figures. The pace was break neck under 44’s watch

        It was actually slower under Obama than W. Bush. Spending was winding down as we removed ourselves from wars and and the deficit was reducing. Republicans could have been responsible, but gave tax cuts to millionaires and billionaires costing us 1.5Trillion.

        If Obama were still president (thank god he’s out of office) the debt would be quite a bit higher than $21 trillion. #TRUMP

        Lol, you trump supporters and you're blind obedience to the master, the deficit has gone up by 1 trillion in a couple of months, what's your opinion on that? And why do you assume i or any other liberal hate corporations? I would just prefer more in my pocket and yours.

        Yeah, I prefer more money in my pocket too, the Trump tax cuts helped millions of Americans. Trumps tax cuts put more money in everybody’s pockets. Liberals have always hated corporations and rich people.

        Obamas cut Bush deficit from $1.4 trillions to $400 billions . . . In less than a year Trump put it back to $1.1 trillion. Somebody has to pay the tax cuts to rich and the loopholespic.twitter.com/RVJ3Oku5uI

        Sure...You thought that when Obama became POTUS the deficit due wars, to tax cuts to rich and the economic downturn(less taxes collected) was erased? Today Bush Wars, Tax Cuts to rich, Medicaid Part D still adding to the debt...and the interests paid for itpic.twitter.com/PkMVzLXoob

        You might want to check why it went up, bush tax cuts, two unfunded wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the economic crash.
