But Biden has also failed to achieve many of his most progressive priorities, which have fallen victim to a combination of lockstep GOP opposition and crucial defections in his own party.īiden’s approval ratings have languished far below 50 percent for more than a year the end of his presidential honeymoon coincided with the messy U.S. Some of his legislative moves, on infrastructure and clean-energy manufacturing, for example, have even been bipartisan victories. Biden has accomplished quite a lot of them-perhaps more than most political observers expected with such narrow Democratic majorities on Capitol Hill. Domestically, he’s pursued nothing less than a transformation of the American social safety net, with an agenda comprising a dizzying number of progressive policy goals. In less than two years, Biden has chaotically ended the war in Afghanistan while struggling to bring the nation fully out of a two-and-a-half-year pandemic.
Forgive them if their views about the president’s record so far are a bit complicated. Voters will render a midterm verdict on President Joe Biden as they decide whether to keep Democrats in control of Congress.
