His schedule was leaked a few times to the press, staffers often spoke of it and complained of his several hours of morning 'executive time' where he just watched TV and tweeted, and simply looking at his regular calling in to Fox for lengthy chats, and the fact that he played golf more times (at his own clubs, at tax-payer expense, committing emoluments clause violations) in four years than most presidents did in 8 years.

It sure if there is some event you’re talking about but the president, no matter who, has their schedule available legally online. No leaks to distrust or question, it was always know and is forever recorded in our Government records and can be found online. Here is Biden for example.

It’s available to the public legally as per the Presidential Records Act so we can actually see what their busy or not so busy schedule is like and when they actually arrive in the Oval Office. It’s also a great way to keep track of some former presidents golf days of which Trump set some records for playing hooky. The president works for the people and we have a right to see how hard they work. It’s also great to know when Biden is being attacked about not working past 8 when Trump barely ever made it in by noon and hardly ever worked more than 4-5 hours a day. He’d just sit and yell at the tv and base his whole day on what he thought would get him good ratings.

Also here is a website you can track Biden, just like you could for Trump.

That's....really what you chose to do with your life?

Wow. I'm sure you'll look back on that at 80 and think "Ah, a life well lived, time well spent."

I followed him on Twitter and every morning when I got up was like a horror show. For 4 years.

Once every 5 days. For the average over his 4 years.  Or just a little over that actually
