What was the deficit when Obama took office.
What was the deficit when he left?

What was the deficit when Trump took office? What was it when he left.

Those are the numbers that matters when discussing spending under each administration. Trying to place blame on Obama for inherited debt and spending is just dumb.

How much of Bush 2009 deficit was added by Obama for fiscal year 2009? Don’t move the goal post.

How much is Biden adding to Trump fiscal year 2021?

I think you may be confused man, George W. Bush’s last budget—for Fiscal Year 2009—created a deficit of $1.4 trillion. That fiscal year began on Oct. 1, 2008, and continued until Sept. 30, 2009. The 1.4 trillion deficit was a result of Bush’s budget when Obama took office.

Side A asks about 2021.

Side B provides 2008 data.

He asked about 2008, it’s right in his post :rofl:

And the answer 0.0$

Obama was the great divider. He bowed to foreign countries. Libs loved him for putting America last.

Nice try but the teaparty big thing was deficit/debt

No you are trying to make it about race. That was the post I was responding to.

The ‘you’re a racist’ tactic is never-ending.

Enlighten me then, where was the tea party who spent 8 years whining/protesting about deficit spending during the Obama administration, while Obama oversaw the greatest deficit reduction in us history while Trump spent 4 years increasing the deficit more than any other president in history? Same thing with vacations they HATED Obama golfing at military bases and brought it up constantly but not a sound when Trump not only golfed far more but used it as an opportunity to funnel tens of millions into his own businesses.

The only way any of this makes sense is racism. The narrative was literally lazy black man Obama needs to vacation on the government dime.

The left has reality on their side in most cases atm compared to the cons and cultists. For many that is still important

OK…now read what you type out real slowly. Maybe you might understand it. And it wasn’t all Bush budget.

Now ask yourself what was added to it after Bush left office.

If you’re not willing to answer honestly…our discussion is over.

He followed Alinsky to the letter in dividing among race, income, and anything else he could think of.

race relations actually went backwards during those 8 years because of him stoking division.

Libs did indeed love him for putting America last. I don’t get that. If i hated America like they apparently do i would get the “heck” out. :roll_eyes:

none of this has a damn thing to do with racism. to say that is pretty much just a bizarre opinion.

Obamma may have lowered the defict. So what? He RAISED THE DEBT by MORE then ALL the presidents before him COMBINED.

Then was it🤣 why did all the 95+% old white tpers instantly stop caring about the deficit the second a black man was out of office?

These people were in the streets whining for years about the deficit while Obama lowered it by a trillion, then when Trump blew it up by bigly by the largest amount ever they were nowhere to be found.

These were same people who constantly complaining about how “unpresidental” (not white) Obama was then went to support trump.

You don’t think racism was behind it🤣

Well it’s impossible to lower debt before you eliminate the deficit, so there’s that.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm…HE RAISED the DEBT, regardless of what he did with the deficit. MORE than all other presidents combined. It’d not impossible to lower the debt or not CREATE MASSIVE NEW DEBT by NOT SPENDING SO MUCH.
