Well, that just means Trump is $500 Billion behind Obama! What a loser! [/s]

[left that other site]

That alone is AMAZING.

Got to pay for the concentration camps somehow

At 10 year treasury rate of 2.5% that is $2.5 billion in interest each year that Trump has saved us. $12.5 billion a year compared to another Obama.

All I can say is that for various reasons, partly due to Trump's election, my Fed Income tax is going to be 5x last year's.

Note 5 x 0 is still zero, an approximation for me....

Countries around the World must be feeling the pain with Obama’s unmarked planes of cash grounded ,LOL

[MomwithHope]

I just went to the debt clock site it says 19,919 and change. FAKE NEWS

[Mariner]

This is nonsense.

The US debt historically goes down in Q1 and 2. Then catches up- in Q3 and 4.

Who could possibly believe Trump has anything to do with this?

[MattinNJ]

That is amazing! So much winning

This is a silly story. The debt goes up and down over short spans of time. The President doesn't have a whole lot of effect over the budget in the short term. A new President doesn't really have an appreciable impact on the budget for many months. Let's look at this same thing a year from now.

The following is the daily debt totals since January 1.
