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.”

Disgraceful response by President Biden. A โ€˜no commentโ€™ and then a smirk when asked about the horrendous Maui disaster.. just appalling. pic.twitter.com/4eCXJIkhK2

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."

That's how much Biden cares about America. pic.twitter.com/r5GbSpyrn2

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