Some Republicans and reporters have criticized Biden for his frequent trips back home to Wilmington, Delaware, which is a 25-minute flight from Washington, D.C. Believe it or not, now President Joseph Biden is getting in trouble – or at least criticized – for doing what he did as Senator Biden every night after work, going home to Delaware.

Granted, now he’s doing it as president and on one version of Air Force One, either the bigger or the smaller version (probably the latter, Mediaite reports it’s a 25-minute flight. It is no longer a 4 hour Amtrack ride.

“I’m old enough to remember when we had a president who worked all day, every day for the American people,” said Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law by way of Eric.

This is the same man who would send out a presidential schedule that said nothing, except that the president would participate in many important meetings and make important phone calls… while golfing.

“And by the way, he took no salary. Of course, I’m talking about president Donald Trump,” she said for anyone who could not figure that out.

It is true that he did not take a salary, four years at $400,000 per year. But he did charge the Secret Service full price for room/board/meals and all that to his many trips to his own resorts but very few around the world. He made money by going home.

Of course, Trump famously spent much time away from the White House, often at properties he owned. During his presidency, he reportedly visited golf properties around 150 times while playing golf on at least 298 of those visits. On average, that’s one visit to a golf property every 10 days, and one round of golf every five days.

The truth is, this is a comparison that both sides should probably just abandon because one can find examples to back their reasoning if one wants, just have to find the right stuff on your side and ignore a few things on your side…

The fact is, no one says no to a president, other than a wife or family member. If Joe Biden wanted to go home every weekend, he likely has every right to do that. If Trump wanted to run the White House from Mar-a-Lago for a month in the winter, he could probably do it – the charges were offensive, but this argument just gets tired.

And Lara loses anyway because acting as though Trump was known for his tireless effort just isn’t going to win, especially when you hear her words:

“So I think it is time to stop vacationing, Joe Biden. I think instead of walking your dog masked up on the beach in Delaware – by the way, we still and know what happened to the first dog – it’s time to roll your sleeves up, get to work in the White House because vacationing clearly is not working.”

Is she actually giving Biden sh*t about one dog dying of old age and one is taken to a quiet place with fewer people?

Yes, as we said. Both sides should shut up, but come on, Lara.
