Thanks! But it's dishonest to blame the President for raising of the national debt when spending is approved and controlled by Congress. What you need to do is show that Democratic controlled Congresses have spent less than Republican controlled Congresses.
Trump is dealing with a Democrat Congress right now. So the huge increase in the national debt, shown on your graphic is due to Democrats, not Republicans.

The GOP tax bill represents two separate plans: the largest tax cut in American history and the largest tax increase. The $4.5 trillion increase over ten years partially covers the $6 trillion cut, 80 percent of which will flow to the top 1 percent.
The main tax cuts include a 15-point drop in the corporate rate; a significant rollback (or repeal—the House and Senate bills differ) of the inheritance tax on dynastic wealth; deductions for dividends on foreign earnings and other vehicles used by the rich; and a reduced rate for so-called “pass-through” businesses that aren’t corporations, like law firms or hedge funds or neighborhood stores.

Except the chart doesn't show trillions added by president, it looks more like the total debt when the president left office.

Assuming the numbers are accurate it means that under GW Bush the nation accumulated as much debt in 8 years than in the previous two centuries, and then under Obama the debt increased by even more than under Bush. Assuming the projection proves accurate the nation will accumulate slightly less debt under Trump than under Obama. But obviously Democrats are better at financial management. Apparently.

The 2020 Democrat tax Bill is one trillion dollars. The GOP tax increase, if it even exists, pales in comparison. You can scream "lies and inaccuracies" all you want, but I certainly won't be surprised when "lies and inaccuracies" somehow become reality. But you guys still need a candidate to beat Trump. I haven't seen one yet. But this was a good talk, see ya around. [emoji112]
