I'll be honest, unless you were in a special circumstance, that sounds like a you problem not a Trump problem. I didn't and wouldn't vote for him, but for most people he did not affect their day to day that much. 2020 was the peak of actual influence on daily life, but I don't think that had as much to do with Trump as people imply, either. The whole world got Covid. The US had a bit more deaths per capita than the rest of the developed world (less than UK) but it also has a less healthy population in general.

I think we all sort of trained each other to fixate on the president and be anxious if they're not on our team.
