This is a very common question used in politics, particularly for conservatives, anytime they are running against an incumbent. The implication is that yes it was better four years ago. That is exactly what the Trump campaign says. In fact he specifically has said that four years ago covid was completely under control and fading. That he had done a Monumental job. I'm very much surprised you weren't aware of this.
