President Joe Biden is facing criticism for his extended trips away from work, with some questioning his dedication to the American people. Biden recently defended his stay in Rehoboth Beach, claiming he has “no home to go to” in Delaware due to ongoing security upgrades to his primary residence in Wilmington. While staying at his beach house, Biden insists he is not on vacation but rather has no other place to stay.
Has the Wilmington mansion been foreclosed?

Biden Claims He Has ‘No Home to Go To’ in Delaware, Defends Stay in Rehoboth Beach https://t.co/vepsfUdvQx— TruthGypsy13🙏 (@TruthGypsy13) September 4, 2023
This statement comes after a series of vacations, including a trip to Lake Tahoe where Biden stayed in the mansion of billionaire Tom Steyer. Critics argue that these vacations are inappropriate given the current national crises, such as the devastating Maui fires that claimed the lives of 115 people. Monica Crowley, a former Trump administration official, accused Biden of not caring about the suffering people of Maui or other parts of America.
Biden’s press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, defended the president’s vacation time, citing his concern and the presence of FEMA personnel on the ground in Maui. However, critics argue that Biden’s response has been slow and inadequate, and that he should be more focused on addressing the needs of the American people.
In addition to the criticism over his vacations, Biden is also facing scrutiny for the amount of time he has spent away from the White House in general. According to data from the Republican National Committee, Biden has spent nearly 40 percent of his presidency on personal overnight trips away from the White House. This surpasses the vacation time of previous presidents, leading some to question Biden’s commitment to his duties.
Overall, Biden’s frequent trips away from work and his defense of these trips are generating criticism and raising concerns about his priorities as president. As the American people continue to face various challenges, many are questioning whether Biden is truly focused on addressing their needs.
