Biden Says There Will Be ‘Plenty of Time’ to Answer Questions ‘Next Week’ Before Heading Off to Delaware

President Joe Biden says reporters will have to wait until next week to ask him questions about topics other than job growth.

Biden delivered remarks at the White House on Friday about the latest jobs report.

“I want to thank you all for showing up today,” the president said.

He added, “We’ll have plenty of time to answer questions about other items other than the jobs report next week.”

As he walked away, a reporter could be heard shouting a question about inflation outpacing wage growth.

However, Biden declined to answer any questions.

Fox News’ Harris Faulkner reacted to Biden’s decision not to take questions as she said, “There is so much going on with our economy, with us, our relations in the world, a war on Ukraine by Russia. So much happening that we’re going to wait until next week, the president says, before we can ask any questions of him about any topics.”

“Including, I guess, the one that he just talked about,” she pointed out.

Biden is scheduled to leave for Delaware later on Friday.

The president frequently travels to Delaware for the weekend. According to the New York Post, he spent 28% of his first year in office in Delaware.

Critics have raised concerns about transparency as they note that information about who visits him while he is in Delaware is not being disclosed.

Additionally, during his first year in office, Biden was criticized for holding fewer press conferences than his predecessors.

And he has been called out for declining to take questions outside of the format of a formal press conference.

Biden’s comments come after the latest jobs report found that the U.S. economy added 431,000 jobs in March, which was slightly less than the 490,000 that were estimated.
