President Joe Biden’s first 100 days in office have been marked by ambitious spending plans and chaos at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Whether the spending can alleviate the pandemic and its associated economic crisis without inflicting crippling new taxes and debt will go a long way toward determining Biden’s success. The border crisis is presently the biggest area in which voters already view him as a failure for now.
