Name those obligations. Also, if that is the reality as you claim it is then prove that Trump added 8.4 trillion while you are at it.

I provided links that provide the debts they list year by year, and was used to come up with the 8.4 trillion debt they have attributed as being Donald Trumps addition to the national debt.

You have proven nothing. All you have done is make a statement. So, actually prove your argument.

To be fair, the national debt has been the result of Congressional budgets and spending, primarily. However, when Presidents sign those proposals into law, they take ownership in name, somewhat unfairly. But here are several articles explaining the process to you.

While his plan limits certain tax preferences and deductions, it does not include any reductions in federal spending. As a result, the Trump plan increases the federal deficit over the next decade by $10 trillion or $12 trillion, according to several estimates
