WASHINGTON: Joe Biden will take his first trip as president aboard Air Force to spend time with his family in Wilmington over Super Bowl weekend – as the White House fended off questions about why the president wasn’t heeding administration health guidance against travel.
‘He is from Delaware and has a home there and is going to spend the weekend with his wife and family there,’ said White House press secretary Jen Psaki when asked about Biden’s first presidential trip.
Biden is leaving town after just over two weeks in office. The trip comes as he continues to urge Americans to wear masks and take other precautions to get the pandemic under control – and the Centers for Disease Control explicitly warns against travel.
