And the debt was increased by actions like bailing out the auto industry, saving 800,000 jobs. All those workers then voted for Trump.

That actually didn't increase the debt. Most of those loans were repaid.

The money to the banks, I'm not so sure.

Don't forget Obama was handed two active wars that he had to fund. They were spending billions per day on military operations. He wound them down as fast as he could but it still took years.

That costed less than $10 billion in the end... you have several additional trillions to account for.
