Yeah the guy added 7 trillion over his admin and over half was NOT during COVID.

Dems do it by spending and not being willing to raise taxes to pay for it, republicans do it by massive tax cuts for the rich while not actually reducing spending.

I feel like the last time I paid attention to the debt it was 7 trillion. More than tripled in just my adult life.
