My brother asked me if I was better off 4 years ago right before the election. I pointed out the USA had one of the best recoveries after the pandemic lock downs and asked what he think Trump would have done different. He didn’t answer. Ignoring that 4 years ago we were filling the impacts of Trumps government, not Bidens, I have to ask if he’s better off now than he was almost 4 months ago. I’m betting the honest answer would be no.

We have been a flaws democracy the entire time of our existence.

Trump barely won the popular vote by 2 million and less than 50% of all votes. At best, 1/3 of Americans voted him in and unfortunately 1/3rd (beyond those who were disenfranchised) didn’t bother even showing up. Leaving 1/3rd who did or could do anything about it.

We’re pushing back. Unfortunately we have the law to work through and they’re just breaking the laws. Time will tell if the guardrails have completely fallen off. It’s not looking great but we have seen progress fighting back.

Eh, the last 4 years were rough, but we were coming out of a pandemic and had one of the best, if not the best recovery in the world. To pin how we responded to covid on Biden is disingenuous. I voted for him because I didn’t want Trump, but outside of his really bad fumble for the recent election (and his support of Isreal genociding Palestinians), he did a rather decent job.
