According to TreasuryDirect.gov Obama started with a national debt of $11,909,829,003,511.75 on Sep 30, 2009.
Today's national debt is: $19.5 Trillion
Obama has almost a year more of his responsibility. Even if he does not DOUBLE the national debt, he will still have increased it more than any other president and almost all the other presidents combined.
On the other hand, lets talk about the public debt:
7,551,861,558,736.77 = Sept 30, 2009
14,113,613,459,659.20 = Sept 16. 2016
Looks like
he has already doubled the PUBLIC DEPT and we still have almost a year to go.
My figures come from TreasuryDirect.gov
Yep, Obama has a legacy of debt.
