Fact Check: "This is a Biden hangover.”
Trump added $2.1 trillion to the deficit. Biden then reduced it by $942 billion.
In the last 50 years, the deficit has increased by a total of $3.8 trillion under Republican presidents. Under Democrats, it’s gone down by $2.1 trillion.

Donald Trump Just Proved He’s an Economic Idiot. Again.
His MAGA sycophants knew all along that his central economic proposal was a sham, but they repeated his lies. And now the economy is cracking.
