Despite Biden's aspirations to be remembered like FDR, the reality is that many Americans view his presidency as ineffective and authoritarian. His attempts to bolster his legacy are met with skepticism, as even a significant portion of Democrats rate him poorly. Biden's legacy appears to be one of disillusionment rather than achievement.
