The report found that Biden has taken 35 personal trips and has spent all or part of 108 of his first 276 days in office at either one of his Delaware homes or at Camp David. Of those trips away from the White House, 69 days were spent at his home in Wilmington, Del.; seven days at his beach house in Rehoboth Beach, Del.; and 32 days were spent at Camp David.

Well, now that the federal government has spent half a million dollars on remodeling his Delaware beach house, it would be a shame for him to have to stay in Washington, DC and do the public's business, don't you think? ;)

As a Senator Biden used to commute from Delaware to D.C. by train. I remember driving from D.C. to Philadelphia. Once I got on the Beltway it was about a two hour drive to Philadelphia. I passed Baltimore on the way.

Trump flew back and forth to Mar a Lago. I lost track of the number of days he was golfing.

I worry more about massive Federal deficits than Presidential travel expense. Trump spent more per year than Obama and Biden is spending more than Trump.

Yet he still accomplished more than both of them combined

And we never heard the end of that particular gripe, did we?

But how much did the taxpayers get stuck with for decorating or the improving of
Mar a Lago?

Just this year, it's almost half a million for Biden's place at the beach.

As a matter of fact, Trump suffered a $70,000,000 loss from his hotel for taking time off to be a public servant, whereas Biden has been living on the taxpayers' dime for his whole adult life. And that doesn't count millions of dollars from influence peddling. And Trump turned his salary as president ($400,000/a) back to the US Treasury. Don't hold your breath waiting for Biden to follow suit.

And, in addition, Trump was a workaholic. As already was mentioned, Biden's own records show that he works only about three hours a day when he does work.

And he won't take questions from the press. But then again, he won't visit the border, won't travel to hold talks with other heads of state, and doesn't bother with a host of ceremonies which Presidents have traditionally attended.

Do you so soon forget how Trump met with the press corps almost daily in 2020, along with Fauci and others, to keep the public informed about Covid when that was newly developing? Biden won't even take questions from the press, and says he has no need to do so.

Is biden really though? Trump spent an average of $98,000 per day on vacations. Which is impressive, as he was technically on vacation about a third as much as W.

You forgot how much Trump charged the Secret Service for staying at Mar a Lago. In the few months since he left office he charged them $40,000. That is more than the Federal bureaucrats allow. He gets Secret Service support for life. They could not stay at The Red Roof Inn to save tax payers money.
Trump charged US taxpayers $40,000 for Secret Service to use a room at Mar-a-Lago in the months since he left office: WaPo

Trump lost money on hotels because people started to boycott Trump Inc. Later the pandemic caused Trump Inc. losses. Did he vote for pandemic relief money for down and out luxury hotels? Now Trump Inc. has 15 felony indictments, their CFO was arrested. There is evidence of multi-million dollar tax fraud.

Keep trying. You get to start with Trump GIVING nearly 1.5 million dollars of his money back to the Treasury. Against that, our absentee president, Biden, has billed the nation plenty for redecorating his vacation home and for various other unnecessary travels. And that is in less than a year in office.

Irrelevant unless those days included golfing.

The only time in my life when a mob stormed the Capitol rotunda trying to stop a President’s certification. They were chanting, “Hang Pence.” Pence was there to certify Biden. You complain about the National Guard being called to service? Hundreds of billions of dollars a year are spent on the Dept. of Defense/Pentagon.

Biden brought the troops home from Afghanistan. The 20 year Afghanistan conflict was estimated by the Washington Post as costing $2 trillion. It was Trump who planned for the withdrawal before Biden was certified President on January 6. Then Republicans complained about the withdrawal.

I don't know how old you are, but in recent decades the Capitol was bombed (!) several different times, and one of those incidents did $300,000 damage. And there was the time that Puerto Rican nationalists shot up the Congress while it was in session. In other words, we're not governed by what you can't remember or don't want to remember.

The 1954 shooting was by 4 people. they were arrested and prosecuted. Considerable cost was spent to ensure such an event didn't happen again.

That is not a mob attacking the capital to overturn the election

Neither were the bombings

So we are also not governed by what you do not seem to understand.

The capitol riot was a pretty unique moment in American history. It nearly sparked a constitutional crisis that could have unraveled into a full out civil war. Thankfully most elected officials chose the nation over party and Trump, namely Pence, who probably realized he would go down as being the worst vice president in history, and possibly the most despised US politician in history had he gone along with it and failed.
