It has been a wild year for presidential politics; things have happened that no American could have predicted would take place.
Four years after the beginning of the pandemic, the U.S. economy is in shambles after supply chains were disrupted and countless businesses went under due to panic and government-enforced shutdowns. While the Biden White House keeps insisting that the unprecedented inflation during the pandemic has slowed down, that doesn’t mean that actual prices have retreated; they have not. Americans are still paying two or three times as much for staples such as eggs and beef.
And then in July, President Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race, ceding his spot to his unpopular VP Kamala Harris. Then this month, the earth seemed to shake when Democrat-turned independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. suspended his campaign and endorsed Republican Donald Trump.
In a turnaround from standard operating procedure, not even the left-leaning media is trying to pretend anymore that it can’t see what all Americans could see: President Biden has senile dementia.
Against this backdrop, many in the U.S. are asking just where in the world President Biden is. Why isn’t he making public statements and appearances? Well it turns out he is making public appearances, or rather, public naps. On the beach.
The news is full of pictures of Joe Biden and his wife Jill lounging at the beach. As of this writing, it is day nine of a two-week beach vacation for the president, and photographers are snapping pics of him lying in a chair on his back fully reclined and fast asleep. He’s on Rehoboth Beach near his beach house in Delaware.
The news outlet The National Desk contacted the White House for comment on what seems to be a large number of beach vacations for the president, only to get linguistic sleight of hand back in the form of a written statement. The White House claimed that, “as with all administrations,” there is no such thing as a vacation, because “the president is always working wherever he goes.” The photographs seem to suggest otherwise.
True to form, the White House also said that anyone who thinks otherwise is “misinformed,” or is relaying “misinformation.”
