Honestly, how has the president changed YOUR life?

I’m interested to hear how whoever is sitting as president has actually affected your life. People screeching back and forth Trump this, Biden that, (etc), well specifically how has that person actually affected your life? Or is it more comparable to arguing/bragging about who won the Super Bowl? For example; I remember a poster saying how “their life was terrible because of Trump” but when I asked for specifics I got no response. Would like to hear from those who feel like Biden has affected their life as well. Other than the comedy, distractions and theatrics, I’m specifically talking about things that actually matter and how your life has changed. If you’re going to leave a comment, don’t forget to post source(s) backing up how it was the president that caused these things.

For my particular situation, Trump and Biden's pause on student loan payments put ~$15K back in my pocket.

It got used to put a new roof on my house, so I literally sleep better at night thanks to those dudes.

That’s a long friendship to lose over another man’s decisions that don’t drastically affect us. Sure costs of living have gone up perhaps as a result of Presidential decisions, but friends should be supporting each other & helping out in times of need because we know no government ever will.

he has shown me that a large nation can sort of run without anyone being in charge.

Its like a ship if everyone abandoned the bridge, It will run for a good long time as long as nothing gets in its way. The reason we have them on the bridge though is for those times when something is in the way.

I’m paying at least $1.50 more a gallon and food is substantially more expensive since. Biden is a joke.

I’m more aware of food and gas prices now than I was a few years ago. I’ve definitely noticed the decrease in buying power.

As for politics it’s still a round robin of political issues IMO - illegal immigration, health care, and the 1st and 2nd Amendments seem to be popping up on almost a cyclical basis.

The one thing that concerns me is the push for criminalizing “misgendering”. IMO it’s more than pushing the LGBTQIA+ agenda but instead is potentially the criminalization of free speech.

I went back and got a degree that I needed to advance at work. Borrowed to pay for it with a specific plan in mind and it's working out great. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How does that make me a loser?

You may be a loser regardless, but if you were to recieve any education loan forgiveness, that equates to me pitching in to get your roof fixed. You would then definately be a loser.

The program was created by the Bush admin, and thanks to Trump and Biden I only needed to make 84 payments instead of 120.

Not sure who you are or why that pisses you off, but you're going to be even angrier when I tell you you're pitching in to pay my entire upper middle class salary while I misc from the office.

Agreed. Biden himself isn't making any decisions, showcasing more than any president in history that the Deep State is running things. I've lost faith in the US like I never had since our current President took bribes for millions of dollars when he was VP and after, and it's treated like a very minor story that most of the population is ignoring.
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!

He coerced some of my family members to take the covid shot at the direction of the permanent government, this is why I will never sign up for the armed forces and I will never allow myself to be drafted, I see the government as my enemy.

Lmfao.. the delusion of a Trumper everyone.

Can't sleep at night over all the fictitious things Biden and Hunter's gigantic dick did.. couldn't care less when a sitting president tried to overthrow the election and refused to enact congressionally approved funds for Ukraine unless Zelensky announced a fake investigation into Trump's political opponent. No big deal.
