Apples are being compared to the orange man here smile By those figures, Trump has added 4.78 trillion in 3 years. If he were to serve 8 years like Obama at that rate he would add 12.75 trillion, easily surpassing Obama.

That much is fact derived straight from the charts and numbers you pointed us to. After that, admittedly, you get into opinion or conflicting economic theory. Obama's addition to the debt was mostly because of the stimulus to dig the country out of the great recession. He handed over a booming economy. Traditional economic theory is that you use that time to try to reduce deficits and debt.

Most analysts expect that under the present administration the debt will grow by considerably more than that. Again, that is open to debate.
