The difference, of course, is Obama started with an economy in freefall where debt was already increasing at absurd rates; whereas Impeached Trump is on pace to add about as much debt in 8 years as Obama did, if given the opportunity, after inheriting a strong and growing economy.
DEficits were going up when Trump took over Obama's disastrous recovery.

I used your link and found a comparison between the first 3 years of Obama and Trump.

In approximately the same period of time Trump increased national debt 17% Versus Obama 41%.
Ohhh so what you saying is that when we increase debt by 1T a year under Trump in good times, that is only half as bad as Obama running a trillion dollar deficit just out of Great Recession with 10% unemployment.
Welcome to the wonderful world of up-is-down rightwinger logic.
Just think what Obama COULD have done if he wasn't as the attached FACTS and actual statements from Obama had occurred!
The economy limping out of a recession in part caused by Obama's role in the housing bubble because his help on a 1995 lawsuit relaxed lending rules
and allowed people who had no capacity to flip homes. Even Barney Frank admits that was a major problem.
"When warned about Fannie Mae in (House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank (D-MA) criticized the President [Bush] warning saying:
"these two entities -- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac --are not facing any kind of financial crisis....The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing." (New York Times, 9/11/03)
But NOW what does Barney say???
Barney Frank Comes Home to the Facts By Larry Kudlow August 21, 2010
For years, Frank was a staunch supporter of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the giant government housing agencies that played such an enormous role in the financial meltdown that thrust the economy into the Great Recession.
But in a recent CNBC interview, Frank told me that he was ready to say goodbye to Fannie and Freddie.
"
I hope by next year we'll have abolished Fannie and Freddie," he said. Remarkable. And he went on to say that "it was a great mistake to push lower-income people into housing they couldn't afford and couldn't really handle once they had it." He then added,
"
I had been too sanguine about Fannie and Freddie."
Barney Frank admits truth about Fannie
So because YOU don't live in today's reality, doesn't alter reality!
Read what Obama did in addition to his role in the housing bubble! These statements and policies are NOT positive for American growth!
