Bush left Obama with a massive deficit problem that Obama did a great job of whittling down even with the stimulus. Granted this was helped by economic growth. Trump inherited a deficit of under 700B and now its skyrocketing to over a trillion again for years to come...while we are experiencing decent growth as well.

Riddle me that? I’ve done my homework.
