Biden claims he's been TOO busy to visit East Palestine in Ohio after toxic train crash 212 days ago left town with polluted air and contaminated water - and admits he STILL has no plans to visit Republican state

President Joe Biden said that he's been too busy to visit East Palestine after the Ohio train disaster as criticism mounts over president's ability to handle moments of crisis.

Biden has spent the past two weeks reeling from criticism over his handling of the Maui wildfires, while Saturday he was snubbed by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis on a visit after Hurricane Idalia.

Sunday will mark exactly seven months since the February 3 catastrophe. The commander-in-chief was ripped back in February for waiting to visit, eventually promising on March 2 that he would.

Beyond embarrassment for the president to be too busy to visit yet has spent something like 40% of his time on vacation.

Biden doesn’t need Ohio in 2024. So why bother?

“In June, it was reported that Biden, the oldest president in American history, is on pace to take more vacations than any other commander-in-chief.

In fact, Biden has spent 382 days of his presidency’s 957 days - or 40% - on personal overnight trips away from the White House, according to a report by the New York Post.”

Just an odd question, with the 2024 primary and Presidential requirements, and vacation time....how does this all fit? Won’t he limit Presidential efforts to just 6 hours a week next year?

Why should he visit any state? 2024 is in the bag for Democrats, and he knows it.

Respectfully, no it is not. If they take out Trump, DeSantis wins.

And Biden won’t be the Demscum’s candidate.

Other forces are now in play and some of them are finally deciding to act. They are being subtle but it’s not hard to spot if you know what to look for.

Powers and Principalities on one side. Us and our allies on the other. Have faith.

I couldn’t agree more. If Dr. Jill isn’t up to visiting Ohio. The people of Ohio are better off. Ohio has beautiful lakefronts and people. The Bidens only go where Jill decides Keep her on the shore through September.

That’s the amount of time it takes to pump him full of whatever they’re using to keep him marginally coherent.

EXACTLY. I was watching his remarks live yesterday, and that was my immediate thought, as well.
