The national debt on 12/10/2015 was $18,762,069,058,578.88 and counting. Very near $19 trillion today. Obama is responsible for the debt through 9/20/2017 so please explain to me how he is going to avoid that stigma of doubling the national debt?
Sorry, I forgot to give a reference for the information. Treasurydirect.gov.
