"Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton both did their first one after just nine days in office.
Barack Obama waited 20 days.
And Donald Trump had been president for only a week before giving his first news conference, where he fielded questions alongside then-British Prime Minister Theresa May.

"The seven-week stretch is the longest a new president has gone without meeting the press in the past 100 years, dating back to when Calvin Coolidge, a man known as “Silent Cal,” was president, according to research by the American Presidency Project at the University of California at Santa Barbara."
Even WaPo are having Biden buyers' remorse. Sad.
