Unfortunately, that is not how elections are won. Quiet competence is not enough currently.

apparently, a president has to be good on TV & make a lot of noise to feed the corporatist media to get any coverage. President BidenтАЩs quiet competence earns their disdain

Sure. But especially now, given the real challenges, it is amazing that Biden gets so little credit.

yes it is amazing. But I have started to take for granted that the public responds to loud voices. If the accusatory voices against Biden are loud and relentless (even if not stating facts), they must be answered just as loudly, or he will lose. Hell, half of the US thinks that Trump is more ethical than Biden!
