WASHINGTON – Today, Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel released the following statement on Biden’s choice to take yet another vacation instead of visiting East Palestine, Ohio:
"While Americans suffer, Joe Biden is rewarding himself with yet another vacation. It’s been 42 days since the toxic train disaster in East Palestine, Ohio, and Joe Biden is nowhere to be found."
Background:
- Biden promised 15 days ago he’d visit East Palestine “at some point,” but he hasn’t said a word about it since.
- Karine Jean-Pierre has also repeatedly dodged on when, if ever, he will travel to the area.
- Since taking office, Biden has spent 311 days — 40% of his presidency — on vacation.
- This weekend will represent Biden’s 312th, 313th, and 314th vacation days.
- Including this weekend, Biden has spent 57 of 112 weekends in Delaware since taking office.
- Overall, this is Biden’s 68th trip to Delaware since taking office.
