He isn't doing an amazing job, but he isnmt horrible either. He could almost certainly do a lot better if Congress wouldn't oppose everything he says and does just because he's a Democrat. But it all comes down to that deeper issue. This political schism will do more damage than any individual ever could, and it needs to end (or at least be toned down) if we want to see real progress. But that requires both sides making compromises, which won't happen. There's also the possibility of just getting rid of parties all together (like Washington said we should), but that won't happen either.
