...en route to eliminating the debt within 10 years due to his fiscal policies...and then bush came along and wiped that out completely, adding trillions based on his tax cuts for the obscenly rich.

Obama fixed what bush broke, and then Trump broke all records adding 8 trillion on account of HIS tax cuts for the same obscenly rich that never needed them.

It's the same deal in Canada whenever the conservatives lie their way into power, they add so much and then try to scapegoat the Liberal party for trying to fix what the conservatives broke.
