Wasn't another of Trump's promises that he would wipe out the deficit and the debt?

When do we get tired of winning?
Please tell me what Bush did, to cause that crash?

That crash was caused because BOTH PARTIES repealed Glass Seagal, which allowed banks to engage in investments. It occurred because banks were willing to make stupid loans, because consumers were willing to take on those stupid loans of their own free will, and because those loans were bundled into fishy derivitives that no one understands.

When the market crashed, Bush was POTUS, and the democrats controlled both chambers of Congress, right? But it's all Bush's fault.
