How has he done compared to your expectations?





With half of Biden's first term already over, how has Joe been doing?

Honestly, I might get some flak for this, but I'd say he's doing above-average. He's made some blunders, but all presidents have, and we always overrate a president's blunders while in office. Sometimes, those blunders are a result of the last administration's actions as well.

Student-loan forgiveness is one of the most ambitious things any president has ever done (and while I do recognize someone like Sanders would have gone even further, having a president actually relieve 20k of my debt is something I would have never imagined). I'm starting to become pessimistic that it's not going to actually happen because of the courts, but I can't really blame Biden for that considering he didn't appoint those justices.

Even beyond that, he's made quite a few changes to loan repayment that I think are beneficial for us all.

There are other things of his that I've liked as well, but I can't say I'm disappointed in how he treated student-loans.
