Donald Trump Has Added Nearly One Third Of All National Debt Since 1789!

President Donald Trump has managed, in his five and a half years in the Presidency, to add more to the national debt than any other President.

His debt increase has been close to one third of the entire national debt, with 8 Trillion Dollars added in his first term, and so far, nearly 3 Trillion Dollars in his second term, and with the national debt presently at about 39 Trillion.

Trump has added overwhelmingly to the national debt with his two massive tax cuts in 2017, and even more so, in 2025.

Sadly, the COVID 19 Pandemic caused a massive increase under Joe Biden of 8 Trillion dollars, so the national debt has risen from 19 Trillion when Trump entered office until now, nearly ten years later.

The national debt has increased seven fold since 2000 when Bill Clinton was about to leave the Presidency, and has doubled since Trump came into office in his first term in 2017.
