The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Here's a kajillion pieces of photographic evidence of him on the beach not doing his job as President:

In the paraphrased words of Sean Hannity, let's try to stay focused here. We weren't talking about the beach. We were talking about TV and drooling. To help refresh your memory, here's a quick recap.

You started with: one can't spend one's Presidency watching Matlock and eating pudding, and that's when he's not drooling.

Then I said: That's so ridiculous it's not even worthy of a response.

To which you replied: Everything I posted was factual. and He's spent about half of his first term doing just that.

So I challenged you: Show me any shred of evidence that Biden sits around watching TV and drooling.

Your reply was: I don't follow the man 24/7, so I'm not omnipotent like ChatNPC is. Maybe he'll know.

To which I gave a presumptive close: So you're admitting that you have zero evidence for your claim that Biden watches TV and drools ...

And that gets us to your change of subject above. Now, let's get back to the topic.

I'm going to assume that you haven't been in the White House personally witnessing Biden watching Matlock and eating pudding when he's not drooling. So you had to get that idea from somewhere. Where did you read or hear it? That's all I'm asking for. What leads you to believe your statement that started all of this is true? It must be based on something, right? What is that something? What is your source?
