Comment on U.S. debt crosses $40 trillion threshold after doubling under Trump and Biden
realcaseyrollins@hilariouschaos.com 2 days agoProbably closer to 70% or 80% if we want to be precise. Joe Biden increased the national debt as well.

It’s fair that you called me out. Of the ‘recent’ 17.2 trillion increases, Biden gets credit/blame for ~2.5 trillion or ~15%.
I would stills say that if one looks at what Biden spent it on vs. what Trump is spending it on then Biden can mostly be forgiven his contribution.
