The annual deficit for Fiscal Year 2022 (from Oct 1 2021 to Sep 30 2022) was $1.4T - HALF of what Biden inherited from Trump.
To be fair, the deficit numbers are up this year and a bi-partisan organization tracking it has some details here:

I've given up all hope that either party is concerned about doing what's right for the country. When they keep putting up the same old failed choices year after year the system is definitely broken. The last two elections in a row I didn't even want to vote the choices were so noxious and I'm not feeling optimistic for 2024.
