Nearly trippled the debt and Bush11 nearly doubled it... Unless the debt goes to 20 trillion he will not catch Bush11 and it will have to reach 25 trillion or so for him to catch Reagan so you go ahead a use numbers, thats the only way you can put this fool ahead of the two fore mentioned idiots.
When you say Reagan tripled the debt he raised it 2 trillion in 8 years compared to 7.5 trillion in 6 years.
