On Friday, President Biden left for vacation at his home in Delaware after spending two-thirds of August on vacation, according to his public schedule.

Biden’s decision sparked backlash since he has spent 40% of his days in office “on vacation,” and has spent more time on vacation than former Presidents Donald Trump, Barack Obama and George Bush at this point in their terms, according to the New York Post.

“Since Biden had a busy week of attending Democrat meetings and portrait unveilings, he is taking yet another undeserved vacation,” the Republican National Committee said in a statement. “Biden doesn’t care that families are struggling because of his party’s failed economic, education, border, and crime policies, which is why voters are ready to send Biden’s agenda and Democrats packing on a permanent vacation this November.”

Biden’s departure comes the day after White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was unable to answer if President Biden was considering reducing personal spending due to record high inflation.

“You’ve talked about trying to get costs down.  A new Gallup poll shows that 24 percent of Americans are spending less; they’ve changed their spending habits.  Seventeen percent are driving less because of inflation.  Seventeen percent traveled less or canceled vacations,” a reporter said.

“The President has been to his beach house six times.  He went on vacation in North and South Carolina.  Is he considering any spending cuts for the administration or for himself personally because of inflation?” the reporter asked.

“So, I’ll say this: The times that the President has gone to Delaware, not including — and we were very clear that when he went to South Carolina in August and Rehoboth, he was going to go spend time with his family, which every President does,” Jean-Pierre replied. “As it relates to trips that he’s made to Delaware: Look, the way we see that is the President could be President anywhere.  He can — he can work from the Residence.  He can work from the Oval Office.  He can work from Delaware.”
