That’s true. I do worry about the debt but president trump thought it wasn’t a worry and spent as much as most presidents except W.
Under Nixon, the national debt grew by 34%.
Under Ford, it grew by 47% -- and that was over less than four years.
Carter: 43% (remarkably low compared to what comes next)
Reagan: an astonishing 186% (the highest figure since FDR) -- it's remarkable how utterly irresponsible that guy was when it came to fiscal matters.
George H. W. Bush: 54% -- and that was in just four years.
Bill Clinton: 32% -- this misfit comes across as the most fiscally responsible President of my lifetime other than Trump.
George W. Bush: 105% -- this is what "compassionate conservatism" and a war criminal in the White House gets you.
Barack Obama: 70% -- even this Marxist had limits, apparently. I'm genuinely shocked this number is so low.
Donald J. Trump: 34% -- and this number is highly misleading because it probably would have been about 18% were it not for the massive COVID relief funding bills from his last ten months in office.
