President Joe Biden’s administration continues to embody the essence of a sloth on vacation, leaving traditional conservatives reeling with both disbelief and amusement. This comedic disaster reached new heights when Tom Bevan, co-founder of RealClearPolitics, shone a spotlight on the president’s bewildering weekly schedule. With a workload that puts the average Bernie Sanders supporter to shame, it’s hard not to wonder—how is this man still drawing a paycheck?
Biden’s schedule is a laughable spectacle—boasting a mere ten hours of “work” in a week packed with nothingness. On Monday, the leader of the free world managed just one phone call, only to leave Tuesday and Wednesday entirely devoid of any meaningful duties. It’s as if the President took a cue from his critics in economics and decided that five-day workweeks are a relic of the past.
Social media exploded in response, and it’s no surprise that Bevan’s post went viral with over 224,000 views. It pulls back the curtain on what many who voted for change must be feeling: sheer embarrassment. The president’s week started with a leisurely 10 a.m. “workday” only to feature a midday call on Thursday to speak about the anniversary of the catastrophic Maui wildfires. A man who should be leading the charge instead appears to be practicing his cameo skills during economic and humanitarian crises.
After that brief make-believe moment at the office, he promptly packed his bags for another sun-soaked vacation in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, possibly attempting to win the award for Most Time Spent Avoiding Responsibilities. Previous vacations haven’t gone unnoticed, especially when residents of Maui were practically begging for leadership during such a critical time. His timing couldn’t be more perfect for an unflattering image of leadership in action—or, rather, inaction.

Biden’s status as a “functioning president” is increasingly being questioned. In the aftermath of his disastrous debate performance earlier this year, many feel he has been relegated to the sidelines as America stares into an abyss of uncertainty. Is it comforting or alarming for conservatives that while the border remains open and global tensions rise, their president seems to be mastering the art of doing absolutely nothing?
In this bizarre political theater, conservatives are left grappling with mixed emotions. The imperative of having a president who is visibly absent weighs heavily on the mind, yet the thought of Biden “actively” participating in governance is enough to scare any rational citizen into questioning their sanity. It seems the best course of action is to let Biden continue his unproductive reign—at least then, he can’t make things worse, or at the very least, he’s too busy building sandcastles to cause much harm.
