Job growth in Biden’s first three years outperformed ANY previous president

Salary increases outpacing inflation

Millions signed up for health care - the uninsured at an all-time low

Cost of living decreasing at a rate 'unmatched in modern history'

Families richer than ever. Net worth climbed under Biden

Narrowing Inequality brought about by a rise in real wages for lower-income workers

Violent crimes, especially homicides, have fallen

'Booming' green spending under Biden (though room for improvement)

Thriving equity market, though bonds are a weak spot

Failing immigration reform - REPUBLICANS derailed bipartisan legislation in the Senate



The article concludes with the following: "Biden is a successful president. Will that matter? Despite economic gains, the President’s approval ratings are dismal."
