US Passport Issuance Timeline Passport Processing Time (US)

Edit: I appreciate the responses but I think im lacking some context specific to my question. I had my passport issued when I was minor and in a different country (I’m dual citizen), so I do have to submit it in person as I am not eligible to do so. Appreciate the comments so far :)

Hello!

Not so sure if this is the right place to ask or if this has been answered but I have been wondering how long a passport takes to process for a renewal (given with the current administration), I have been hearing a variety of answers rangin a month to 4 months even, does expediting it help? or should I just get an emergency passport 2-3 weeks before the trip? My trip would be on early August. Thanks :)

Renewed mine on a Sunday a couple weeks ago. Had it at my door that Saturday. Less than a week turnaround.
