As opposed to what? A second Biden term but with a solidly red House and Senate?
Considering that Congress is dysfunctional and the presidency is far too powerful, I prefer it the other way around - Biden as president with a completely dysfunctional Republican Congress, like we've seen in the House since 2022.
It's not supposed to be this way. The Constitution spends a lot more time describing the structure and powers of Congress than the other branches, with most of the verbiage about the House. The House is supposed to be the purest expression of the peoples' will, since representatives come from smaller districts and can be replaced every two years.
