Still Sharp as a Tack After All These Years

Joe Biden is on vacation in the Virgin Islands. Nothing surprising about that; he has spent around 40 percent of his term on vacation. And that is the official White House tabulation. I suspect the true number is significantly higher. If it were a Republican president, that would be a scandal.
