Generations of politicians in both parties approved and modified these programs long before Trump took office.
"It is always challenging to figure out how much spending was on whose watch," said Steve Ellis, president of the federal budget-watching nonprofit group Taxpayers for Common Sense.
Similarly, the biggest single spikes in the federal debt came from the initial rounds of coronavirus relief legislation in 2020. Trump signed them, but they passed with broad bipartisan support.
Why are you lying, Bob?

Why did you omit the real truth that was right in front of your face in your own link? You really have this nasty habit of lying directly and/or by omission. I guess you've had good teachers in the rightwing swill you so easily swallow.
PS Doesn't the Catholic church call that a sin?
