I am no historian personally, but from what I am hearing, even if a former President had only had to deal with a tenth of the issues that Biden has - heck, just pick COVID alone out of that ginormous list - that he already has dealt average to above average with it. But when you put them all together - like you had a whole list and still didn't get to huge concerns that people have like the border issue - then it becomes supremely admirable, in relation to what he has had to deal with.
I wonder if some of that may be due to the Afghanistan withdrawal debacle early on in his Presidency, but even there he owned up to that, despite how it was Trump who caused >95% of it, and anyway that was years ago now. Another part is that the process he chooses to use to get things done is slow and boring, and then he doesn't grandstand to the extent that past Presidents have done.
The media has consistently been instantaneous to blame Biden whenever there is the tiniest thread of a future thought that he might be to blame, but then when he does things like help out the train workers, or lower gas prices, those achievements barely register. This is "biased reporting", arguably so much so that we are not "informed" by what they say and thus it seems not "reporting" so much as showing "advertisements" for things that bleed & lead.
Fox News is correct - hurk 🤮 - when it says that our "lamestream media has failed us". Ofc it is also corrupt and it does even worse, but if that much at least were not a true statement then it would not have half the viewership that it does.
Like Brexit, we have allowed our government to fall into such disarray that we will never be seen the same way again on the global stage. Nor should we.
