President Biden told Easter revelers on Monday to treat spring as a time when “new seeds are planted” and the future is “filled with unlimited possibilities,” capping the holiday weekend with a hopeful message as he plots his own political future.
Standing on the White House balcony, Mr. Biden and first lady Jill Biden told families to treat the White House as “your house” during this year’s White House Easter Egg Roll, in which children and families roll Easter eggs through the White House grass with a long spoon.
Mr. Biden’s remarks mirrored comments he makes at stops around the country, insisting the U.S. is on an optimistic course even as his chief political rival, former President Donald Trump, says the nation is heading into the gutter and needs a course correction. Mrs. Biden, a teacher, chose an education theme for this year’s egg roll, a tradition that dates to the 1870s and is held on Easter Monday.
