Obama increased the debt by 8.5T or 74%. W increased by 5.8T or 101%. Clinton added 1.4T or 32%. HW added 1.55% or 54%. Reagan added 1.8T or 186%. Carter added 299B or 43%.
US Debt by President: By Dollar and Percent
So, you add up the prior 5 and it equals more than Obama, therefore he didn't add more debt than all other presidents combined. That is what I was responding to.
BUT this is from that SAME article you quoted:
The Four Presidents with the Worst Deficits
President Barack Obama had the largest deficits. By the end of his final budget, FY 2017, his deficits were $6.785 trillion. Obama took office during the Great Recession. He immediately needed to spend billions to stop it. He convinced Congress to add $253 billion from the economic stimulus package to Bush’s FY 2009 budget. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act added another $534 billion over the rest of Obama’s terms.
In 2010, the Obama tax cut added $858 billion in deficits in its first two years. Obama increased defense spending, totaling $800 billion a year. Federal income decreased due to lower tax receipts from the 2008 financial crisis.

Republicans pay the price for Trump's wall crusade
Gross' abuse of power
Declaring a national emergency would be a lawless act, a gross abuse of the power of the presidency and a desperate attempt to distract from the fact that President Trump broke his core promise to have Mexico pay for his wall
Just Another SCAM

trump is such a narcissist he will do anything to have a national monument that will be associated with his name. Even waste 5 billion dollars of taxpayers hard earned money. Although, knowing he screws over contractors on a regular basis, maybe he will refuse to pay the builders of the wall and save some money.

The latest conspiracy theory is that Trump will be forced to claim the 25th Amendment. Resign. Pence will become President. Pence will issue Trump a pardon. Pence will resign and then Trump will become President again.
