Obviously this isn’t about comparing the credit Biden should get vs what unions should get, it’s comparing him to the very low bar of other US presidents.
I’d agree that FDR is the right answer if you’re old enough, but I’d say Biden probably takes it for post-FDR presidents, and definitely does for post-LBJ. Even putting aside his pro-union rhetoric or the symbolism of being the first president to walk a picket line, the improvement in NLRB policy from prior Democrats, much less Republicans, is really staggering.

And sadly in modern history all of them that weren’t actively anti union are all sitting on the ground together right by that low bar…
None of them are above any of the others, they’re all sitting right there together at the “didn’t do shit” line, people just keep demanding we clap that Biden isn’t actively destroying the country. He’s just sitting back roasting marshmallows over the fire.
