In 2018, a couple in their 40s opened a restaurant in Fayetteville, North Carolina, after quitting their property management jobs. They had no trouble finding employees for the affordable food establishment. However, the Covid-19 pandemic forced them to close their restaurants in 2022. Rising food prices and difficulty finding reliable workers were among the challenges they faced. The couple’s experience reflects a sentiment shared by many Americans who believe the economy was stronger under former President Donald Trump and desire his return to the White House. Polls indicate that voters have more confidence in Trump’s ability to handle the economy compared to President Joe Biden.
