In a break from tradition, President Donald Trump decorated a White House walkway with bronze plaques for each U.S. president. In an even sharper break with tradition, the plaques were written in a style echoing Trump’s Truth Social posts, with misleading or false descriptions of recent Democratic presidents.
WASHINGTON — The White House has installed plaques on the exterior of the building bashing President Donald Trump's predecessors, including Presidents Joe Biden and Barack Obama, and promoting disinformation about their administrations.
President Donald Trump has installed plaques underneath portraits of presidents at the White House, using them to insult and make unfounded claims about some of his predecessors including Joe Biden and Barack Obama -- the latest in a series of controversial White House changes under Trump.
President Donald Trump has added plaques featuring provocative language under portraits of past presidents on his “Presidential Walk of Fame ” at the White House. Trump had already used the revamped walkway to troll former President Joe Biden, whose portrait is not his face, but an image of an autopen and his signature.
The plaques do not attack Democrats alone. Former Republican president George W Bush, for example, is criticised over the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, whereas former Democrat president Jimmy Carter is praised for some of his achievements. Neither former presidents Biden or Obama have commented on the installation of their plaques.
The plaque beneath President Joe Biden's photo reads: "Sleepy Joe Biden was, by far, the worst President in American history." It falsely accuses him of winning the "most corrupt election ever" and claims he made "unprecedented use of the autopen."
