The title of the thread, STARTED BY YOU, is "Trump lashes out at media for failing to report debt decrease". He clearly wanted credit for something not the result of his policies.

As I said, he campaigned on lowering the National Debt. But in the 20 months since he took office, it has increased dramatically.

The decrease was under Obama's budget, not Trump's. Trump's first budget didn't go into effect until 4 months ago when they passed Trump's first budget.
