Again at home in Delaware, Biden's weekends are mostly a mystery
by Naomi Lim, Political Reporter |
| May 01, 2021 06:30 AM President Joe Biden is again spending the weekend in Delaware, but just how he spends his days of leisure are shrouded in mystery.
The White House has so far released very little information about what he does on Saturdays and Sundays, providing the public with scant details about whom he spends time or speaks to.
When he arrived at his Wilmington residence Friday afternoon, it marked his seventh trip home as president as the country returns to some semblance of normal amid the coronavirus pandemic and a day after he cleared his 100th in office.
Presidents never experience "a true weekend or true vacation," according to Eric Schultz, a White House principal deputy press secretary for former President Barack Obama.
"The office and the responsibilities follow you wherever you go," Schultz told the Washington Examiner. "Given the nature of the job, there’s no clean break from the work when President Biden is in White House residence or even back home in Delaware."
But the descriptions the White House provides regarding Biden's weekend schedule are becoming increasingly vague.
