I can honestly say the same. My expenses were lower on things I must have,
and I could more afford things I "liked" to have. Now, the only times I
can say my overall expenses are down is if I only shop for groceries, only
pay for power-water-etc., and don't drive anywhere beyond the grocery
store. Even then, they are not always less.
As for things beyond expenses, we seem to be moving back towards being
under potential threat from Russia, China, and terrorists than whe were
during the 2016-2020 time frame.

A lot of people who chant that mantra also seem to have a lot more
disposable income than I do, so I am not sure why they are complaining --
i.e. I would consider them rich.

They will sometimes make some weak arguement that the environment is better
off now (although those EVs take a lot of natural resources that are not
"clean" to mine), but yes they mostly shift to how having Trump as
President will make them feel.

A lot of real Trump fans will tell you that he needs to engage the press
even more (because I believe they live off his every word), but I agree he
should have kept his mouth shut a lot more than he did.
