Here's what Jake Schneider, author of the two RNC press releases, said in an X direct message when Snopes asked how he determined that Biden spent 40% of his presidency on vacation:
"We just saw it in a Russian meme and shared it. We know that our followers will believe anything we tell them."

Due to the duties of the office, the president is never truly on vacation. Therefore, Snopes focused on determining how many days Biden spent in a vacation setting, which was about 117 or 118 full days, or about 8% of his presidency, depending on which source you use. Biden also spent an additional 66 partial days in a vacation setting. A White House spokesperson said Biden works "every single day." His administration's research said Biden spent 60 total weekdays away from the White House with no public events, or about 4.5% of his presidency. Much of a president's work schedule is private and not publicly reported. Snopes found 76 to 77 days where Biden spent some or all of his time in a vacation setting and there was no public evidence that he was working, or about 5% of his presidency. https://www.yahoo.com/news/...00701.html
