I seriously think THAT was the major flaw. He should have been crowing EVERYWHERE about what he did because he knew that’s what Trump does (when he doesn’t even do what he’s bragging about a lot of times.)
For real, being humble is an admirable trait, but it has its place. Hell for his Build Back Better plan alone, every time I see some road or bridge in rough shape finally being restored, I smile and say "thanks Biden." He should have been preaching it from the rooftops, make sure the press can't bury it under the Trump team's muzzle velocity.
I’ll take the good of his administration definitely an overall positive for the nation. Hopefully his won’t be the last good administration. Hindsight being 20/20 I wish they had worked on the messaging better. I also really wish he had transitioned as soon as it was appropriate from “will he won’t he reelection” to being a “kingmaker” for the democrats. Instead the infighting really took some of the wind out of the democrats sails.
The problem is that he and his cabinet were crowing, the whole time. But the media was up Trump's ass and had no interest in covering anything else. Yellen and Buttigieg would give press conferences to empty rooms while the press was live-streaming then citizen Trump on his way to court.

His flaw was he had a republican congress that stopped everything he wanted to do.
