You want to compare Obama's first 3 years, in which he inherited an economic crisis
That is why I will soon post the numbers comparing Obama's last three years with Trump's first three and let the numbers speak for themselves. No bs stories, no adjectives.
Why would an isolationist USA need such a bloated military?
My advice is to never use the term "isolationist" to keep the super patriots from freaking out, notwithstanding the fact that every single country out there is "isolationist". Only the US has 13 aircraft carriers - purely aggressive fossils for those stupid, never ending police actions the US swamp loves so much for obvious reasons.
...restoring the state finances (Clinton, Obama)
It's a sad state of things that the last time the fed budget was balanced - well, almost - was under Clinton. The Republicans was instrumental, but, as long as we credit Trump for what he did right, Clinton gets the credit for what happened during his presidency.
That US military budget is not just bloated. It's insane at 40% of the total the entire world spends on this crap. Just to compare, Russia, that scary monster that is ready to attack "America" and our "allies" - what a fu*cking joke - spends less than one tenth of what we blow to be the world's dumbest cop.
