Don't really follow politics at all(like most people until the presidential elections) but from the media regarding politics you'd think he was the president And as someone eluded too earlier Biden could bills that will have major support which some already have but most people in general only care about the economy...We can point to things like Afghanistan or policies overseas but I guarantee the average person doesn't care. I'd say most people don't stick to watching news 24/7 Notice how Biden's approval rating has silently improved a bit when gas prices have started to lower in certain states... Inflation is the number one thing people care about when it comes to presidents. You could be laughed at by world leaders or be terrible overseas politically.
