However, Diamond conveniently overlooked the fact that\u2063 the president had initially\u2062 offered &#8220;no comment&#8221; on the disaster \u2064and had spent vacation days in Lake Tahoe before visiting the devastated island.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WATCH:<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">CNN&#8217;s Jeremy Diamond downplays Biden&#8217;s heartless silence on the Maui wildfires last week and promotes\u2062 his\u2063 late arrival.<br \/>He boasts that &#8220;most importantly&#8221; the trip to the island &#8220;will be an opportunity for the President to display that signature \u2064empathy&#8221; the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/woman-gets-just-50-hours-of-community-service-for-false-accusation-of-sexual-assault\/\" title=\"Woman Gets Just 50 Hours Of Community Service For False Accusation Of Sexual Assault\">media claims<\/a> he has. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/DSxTjDqurS\">pic.twitter.com\/DSxTjDqurS<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 \u2064Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NickFondacaro\/status\/1693666001420681502?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 21, \u20622023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Diamond quoted Biden as saying, &#8220;I will do everything in my power to help\u2062 Maui\u2064 recover and rebuild\u200b from this tragedy.

Although it may have been absent for a few days, empathy has been a defining characteristic of Biden&#8217;s political career and presidency.
