Regarding his return, my point is that once he gets to NYC he can use whatever travel arrangements were originally planned. Once there it no longer matters how he got there. |

IIRC there was even a pic of perhaps Biden when a candidate riding so.That said, my point remains, I think it would have been they who favored auto over rail. Not saying Pete shouldn't have booked rail to begin with, but if the destination were near LaGuardia... |

But for DC to NY, the actual travel times from airport to airport are always far less than half the trip.Even the times from train station to train station can be hardly more than half the trip. So the real world is very complicated. |

If his destination was midtown Manhattan, then the train is certainly faster. Same for the plane if his destination was an airport, which is possible given his position. |

What right do you have to criticize a busy guy as to how he chooses to travel? Maybe none of the scheduled trains worked for him. If he was at the airport when the flight was cancelled, it was probably far more convenient to hop a rental car right at the airport than schlep into Union Station and wait for the train. |

The consensus in the meantime is that he was probably driven by a security detail. But let's start with the basic claim that he drove. We all agree that if he was going to midtown Manhattan he should have taken the train. But suppose he wasn't. Are you really saying he should have taken the train if his ultimate destination was fairly far from midtown? And if that's not what you're saying, in what way do you object to my post? |
