WASHINGTON: "President Joe Biden must have spend more time on the beaches than he was in the White House!" The accusation is from members of the Republican Party in the US. There's a reason for that. Biden, 81, took 532 holidays in four years. That's about 40 percent of the 1,326 days spent in the office. The average American has 11 days of vacation a year. That is, they will get 532 holidays only after working for about 48 years! The figures were released by the National Committee of the Republican Party.
Biden frequently visits beaches during the holidays. The criticism is that "When the world is burning, Biden will sleep in a chair on the beach". Former President Donald Trump had devoted 26 percent of his office time to vacations. Biden broke Trump's record. According to American media, Ronald Reagan and Barack Obama took only 11 percent off in two terms, while Jimmy Carter took just 5 percent off in a single term. At the same time, sources from the president say that Biden will perform his duties remotely, even though he is on vacation.
