Letter to the editor: A personal look back on eight years of Biden, Trump

Tribune-Review | Friday, March 7, 2025 9:00 a.m.

After reading the letter “A rundown of the last 8 years” (Feb. 5, TribLive) while Presidents Trump and Biden were in office, I decided to check out my last eight years.

While Trump was in office, my insurance company canceled my $15,000 life insurance policy, resulting in a future loss to my daughter. In addition to the loss of life insurance, my retiree’s health insurance was cut by $1,900 per year. That loss so far amounts to $11,400, and growing yearly.

In the last two years of Biden’s time in office, my personal health insurance started reimbursing both my wife and me a total of $1,000 each yearly. That amounts to $4,000 and continues.

The letter-writer forgot one thing. He forgot to write that Trump did nothing when the coronavirus started.
