rxh4n1: "When you use Democrat talking points on this forum that’s what you deserve."

Berlin_Freeper: "What I think I deserve is an intelligent reply about what Gov DeSantis has said about Trump raising the national deficit almost 8 TRILLION dollars, after promising to eliminate it."

Sadly, the last US presidents who actually reduced the national debt were Warren Harding and Calvin Cooldige (1921 to 1929).
Every president since has added to the debt.
Here is a listing of recent presidents, of whom Pres. Trump, with a Democrat House under Nancy Pelosi, was second best in percentage to Pres. Clinton, with a Republican House under Newt Gingrich.

At the current rate, alleged Pres. Biden will add around 45% to the debt left him by Donald Trump.
Biden's increase in debt will be equivalent to that of Democrat Pres. Carter, who was previously known as our country's worst president.

FYI, see my post #106 above.

Sadly, in a world gone mad, Trump's performance stands out as better than all except for the Democrat Pres. Carter who was strictly disciplined by House Speaker, Republican Newt Gingrich.

Trump, by contrast, had to contend with Democrat Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
