The <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/white-house\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">White House<\/a> has maintained that Biden is constantly &#8220;working from home&#8221; while staying in Delaware.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;President Biden is deeply proud of his roots and his family and it has been a staple of his time in public life to never lose touch with either,\u201d White House spokesman Andrew Bates told CNN about Biden&#8217;s travel. &#8220;Presidents of the United States are constantly on the job, regardless of their location \u2014 whether they\u2019re on a state visit overseas or just 100 miles from the White House for a short trip to Wilmington, DE. And as all Americans can agree, it\u2019s important for leaders to avoid becoming ensconced in Washington, DC.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is 2022, not 1922. If the rest of the country can work from home, so can the president of the United States,&#8221; Michael LaRosa, former press secretary to first lady Jill Biden, added. &#8220;He spent (practically) every weekend in Delaware during his 36 years in the Senate, and his eight years as vice president.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Arguably Biden&#8217;s most successful stretch as president occurred out of the public eye. He spent much of the late summer this year in isolation recovering from <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/coronavirus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">COVID-19<\/a> and a rebound infection, a period that saw the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, the PACT Act, a successful anti-terror strike, and decreases in national average gas prices.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Biden did not officially take the lead in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary until coronavirus restrictions limited his and other campaigns to operating in near virtual-only settings.<\/p>\n<p>Still, Biden is on pace to shatter the record for weekend getaways. <\/p>\n<p><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Former President George W. Bush spent 490 days at his family&#8217;s Texas ranch across his two terms in office. Should Biden be elected to a second term in office and maintain the current rate of his weekend getaways, he could be projected to spend more than 800 days, nearly three full years, in Delaware alone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Joe Biden has logged more than one-quarter of his first 20 months in office away from the White House.
