President Joe Biden was once again vacationing on Rehoboth Beach in Delaware on Sunday.

Asked to comment on the devastating fires that left 96 dead in the Maui town of Lahaina, President Biden said, “No. No comment.”

The defining moment of Biden's presidency?

When asked about the deadliest wildfire in modern U.S. history, the president has just two words: "No comment."

These people sat in the ocean for hours to escape wildfires as their homes, communities, and loved ones burned to the ground.
