Cut these people out of your life. It's too short.

Life was great under Bush too, considering all of the eased bank loan requirements and the vast appreciation in housing values.   Business was booming .... then .... CRASH .... the recession.   Every good or bad sequence of events does not begin and end at the beginning and end of each presidential term.  In fact, many presidents benefit or are adversely impacted by what the prior president did during his term in office.

With inflation down to a manageable level and unemployment at a very acceptable level, I'd have to say those in charge, have done a remarkable job at balancing what could have been a severe recession.

OK ..OK .. OK.... regardless of the above, I'm a lot less concerned about the presidential election this time around than I was in 2016.  I think both candidates have the + to balance their - so at this point, I'm probably 50/50 on policies but don't like one candidate more than I don't like the other candidate.  With that in mind, I could see myself voting republican in 2028, but not this year.  I think my voting record is ~ 2/3 Dems over Republicans .... as far as i can remember, it was Clinton, Bush, Obama, Romney, H Clinton, Biden.
