Status quo is preferable to regression and destruction in my view.

Building things takes time, destruction does not. The protest vote was in favor of destruction.

I don’t think Biden was status quo so much as he led a deliberate and traditional administration.

I think most people who voted Trump back into office expected him to do pretty much the same thing he did his first term: yap yap yap, play golf and some other nonsense.

In my opinion, 2nd term Trump is at least 10x worse than the first term.

Agreed.

Also, this is usually the case with any president because they are only focused on doing doing things in their first term that will get them reelected. Then all bets are off on the second term because who cares about ratings.
