Work-shy Joe Biden mocked by Dominican Republic President: 'You'll have time to be on the beach!'

However, Abinader made a quip about the 46th President’s recent beach trips.

The Commander-on-Chief has spent at least 300 out of his first 1,000 days in the White House either in Delaware or on holiday.

Biden also spent 89 days at Camp David and another 74 days on overseas trips.

During Thursday’s meeting, Abinader said: “The Dominican people are very proud of our economic recovery, which depends to a considerable degree on U.S. trade and tourism.

“We will continue to work hard to build an even brighter future for all our people.

“Mr President, we look forward to welcoming you soon to the Dominican Republic at the next — at the next Summit of the Americas in 2025, where we will continue to develop the bonds of prosperity, security, and democracy that bind us together.

“And that summit will be in Punta Cana, so you have time to be on the beach. Thank you.”

Biden, who will likely contest the 2024 US Presidential Election on this day next year, simply replied: “Thank you very much.”

A former Republican strategist recently told GB News that Biden was right to take beach breaks in an attempt to “recharge his batteries” ahead of the next election.

The 80-year-old is facing a bruising 12 months with a rematch against 2020 rival Donald Trump seemingly on the cards.

But Biden does not appear to have many significant challengers in the Democratic Party primary race.

The 46th President, who launched his re-election bid in April, is currently coming up against Minnesota Representative Dean Phillips and humanitarian campaigner Marianne Williamson.

Robert F Kennedy Jr dropped out of the Democratic primary to stand as an independent candidate as Biden’s lead against his other challengers stretches to almost 70 per cent in the opinion polls.

Trump is facing a more crowded Grand Old Party field of around a dozen candidates.

However, former Vice President Mike Pence joined a number of other Republican rivals by pulling out of the race.

Pence, 64, who fell out with Trump over the January 6 insurrection, said: “We always knew this would be an uphill battle, but I have no regrets.”

He added: “I am leaving this campaign, but I will never leave the fight for conservative values.”

Despite a number of Republican rivals challenging Trump for the conservative crown, the 77-year-old is almost 50 points ahead in the most recent surveys.

Biden defeated Trump, making him just the tenth Commander-in-Chief to fail to return for a second term, by around 4.5 per cent in 2020.

The 80-year-old’s narrow wins in the swing states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin handed him victory.

However, polling aggregator Real Clear Politics has given Trump an advantage of just 0.5 per cent.

Trump won the 2016 election against former First Lady Hillary Clinton despite losing the popular vote by 2.1 points.

A Republican nominee has only won the popular vote once in the last three decades, with George W Bush defeating John Kerry as the 43rd President pitted moral values and concerns about terrorism against the economy and Iraq.
