They're not doing it because "...Congress doesn't really get to talk to the President."  Biden's inability to articulate a coherent response to the simplest of questions only magnifies his ineptitude, hence his avoidance of the press.

To keep this in perspective though, "What did you have for lunch?" is a tough question for Joe.

If Congress got to put the President on the hot seat regularly, then members of Congress would be asking the tough questions, and the press wouldn't have to ask them.  That's how it usually works in the UK and Canada.
