Yes, the current administration has been in power for less than two years so obviously the “day to day life” hasn’t changed much for the average American (except everything has gotten more expensive).

The US is no longer looked at as a superpower, it just surrendered to a regional power and will pay $300B USD in tribute.

But for Trump and his cronies life certainly has improved.

But the damage is done and we are witnessing the decline and destruction of the worlds greatest Empire of all time.

Nitpick: it’s 6 years.

The Republican Party looked very different during Trumps first term

The us stopped being looked at as a superpower as a brain rotted Alzheimer’s patients president rose to power on the campaign “don’t let Trump win” and then did little productive except stoke wars and pardon his son and his friends from crimes.

I’m assuming you’re talking about Biden, and no, not really. Still considered a superpower.

Up until the second Trump presidency, most of us outside the USA had basically the same opinion as we had before. Pretty messed up politics , but strong economy and strong military.

The first minor dip was with Trumps first presidency. But shit went downhill fast with his second, unfettered reign when MAGA took total control over the Republican Party.

Now it is 110% clear that the American Dream is dead and buried, except for the well connected wealthy, and your military was state of the art, two decades ago.

The 21st century belongs to China and Europe.

I don't know, I don't really buy that this all went downhill with Trump. It's easy to say that about someone you don't like and fail to overlook all the signs with someone you like.

I didn’t have a problem with Trump during his first term.

It was clear he was unfit to be a president, but he was mostly golfing.
