Life doesn't work that way, ShortBus. We had, and still have, a pandemic. Should we also recalculate the debt under Obama without Bush's Great Recession? Should we recalculate the economy under Hoover and FDR without the Great Depression?How much if you take away the COVID stimulus? On average? May still be higher. Just curious.Yes, Obama added $9.3 trillion in 8 years. $1.2 trillion on average per year.If by 10 trillion you mean 8 trillion then you wouldn't be the worthless lying scum POS you are, and Tramp ran up just under 8 trillion and counting in less than 4 years, as his last fiscal year doesn't end until Sept 30 of this year.
Obama inherited a BUSH depression and Tramp inherited a roaring recovery.
Method 1: Debt Added Since Obama Took Office
The largest number comes from calculating how much the debt increased during Obama's two terms. When Obama was sworn in on Jan. 20, 2009, the debt was $10.626 trillion.1 When he left office on Jan. 20, 2017, it was $19.937 trillion. It explains why some would say Obama added $9 trillion to the debt.

How Much Did Obama Add to the Nation's Debt?
The U.S. debt increased $9 trillion during the eight years Obama was in office. The ARRA and increased military spending added the most.www.thebalance.com
A recession doesn't need 10 trillion to get it going again.
Trump added $7.8 trillion in 4. $2 trillion on average per year. 67% higher than Obama.
Sorry for you, but the economy of 2020 belongs to Trump. Like it or not.
