Something stinks about those numbers Mach... Bush took office with 5 trillion (the debt stood at $5.629 Trillion) and Obama took office with 10 trillion (On January 20, 2009, it stood at $10.6 trillion) ... Now I know you don't have an engineering degree but I think even you can figure that one out.

Obama took office with 9 trillion (On January 20, 2009, it stood at $10.6 trillion) and Trump took office with 20 trillion (At the end of FY 2017 the gross US federal government debt is estimated to be $20.4 trillion). Again, I think you can figure that one out.

Your link is doing something to the numbers to change reality.
