This probably deserves its own thread, but hasn’t Biden in many ways been more successful than Obama? It could be recency bias, but I feel like Biden has achieved a ton, even if someone totally disagrees with his policies. He has always been such a good guy to work with, I half expect him to get the House to pass things even though they are Republican.
