Dim "experts" now expect JoeBie to fail on this question. It is straight forward and the point...were you better off four years ago? Of course when your party has never had anything positives to say about America and you have weaponized the state against normal people the answer is...Heck NO!

Answer is a little complicated I make 50k more a year than I did 4 years ago, so yes I am doing marginally better than I was at that point. However, I should be doing much, much better than I was 4 years ago.

I am better off but like the other poster said my income has gone up a ton and I am marginally better. However due to market now I do feel like I am crushing my customers way worse due to a factor of things

My income has increased by I'm not able to purchase as much with it. So yes - I was better off 4 years ago. I also didn't feel as though many aspects of my life and my opinions were under attack or threatened by government.

Either "side" can find people to answer in a way that confirms their message. There are plenty doing worse, plenty doing better. It's a loaded question. Personally, I'm better off, but I don't credit that to Trump, Biden or anything government

Yes
I make a lot more money, I pay less for housing now than previously and rent instead of own.
It does cost more to live in general though, but there are ways to save some money as long as you're savvy and willing to do a little more work

No.
Remembering January 6.
• Gas was $1.93 per gallon.
• There was zero inflation.
• Supply-chain was functioning well.
• Economy was strongest in 50 yrs.
• Border was controlled and secure.
• Taliban wasn't armed with U.S. artillery.
• Plenty of workers to fulfil labor needs.
• Stock market was at record-highs.
• 401K's had record-high values.
• Interest rates were at record-lows.

The majority of the people who are better of today vs during Trump's first term are people who are likely benefiting from government money or people who anticipated the appropriate stocks to invest in knowing the insane green policies the illegitimate regime was going to pursue.

If you wouldn't gladly go back to 2019, you are probably a recent lottery winner.

No. The vaccine mandate cost me my job. At least 12 major cities broke annual homicide records. The FBI and DOJ have been weoponized against Conservative Americans. The war on fossil fuels have caused the country to lose our energy independence and I pay 55% more for gas. The foreign policies over the last 4 years have displayed weakness and invited aggression. We are funding a war in Ukraine and a war in the Middle East. Inflation has gone up 19% and my groceries and utilities are through the roof. I've lost over $7K annually in purchasing power due to inflation and higher interest rates. The border is wide open and over 8 million illegals have invaded our country. And because I don't celebrate all of the forementioned, I am considered a domestic terrorist and the greatest threat to democracy. I am not better off.
