White House officials have updated the so-called 'Presidential Walk of Fame' with plaques that reflect Donald Trump's personal views, including branding Joe Biden as 'the worst president in American history'. The changes, made along the colonnade, replace neutral historical summaries with opinionated language reminiscent of Trump's social media posts.
Barack Obama's plaque describes him as 'one of the most divisive political figures' and criticises his healthcare act. Bill Clinton's plaque downplays his achievements, crediting Republicans in Congress, and notes that his wife Hillary lost the 2016 election to Trump. Ronald Reagan's plaque is warmly worded, stating he was 'a fan of President Donald J. Trump'.
Biden's plaque is the most critical, reading: 'Sleepy Joe was, by far, the worst President in American History.' It also claims he took office 'as a result of the most corrupt Election ever seen in the United States'. Biden's portrait has been removed and replaced with an image of an autopen, referencing Republican allegations about his use of the device.
The display is now called the 'Wall of Fame' and features portraits of every US president in chronological order, except Biden. Trump's approval rating has slipped to 39%, according to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll, as voters from his own party have grown dissatisfied with his handling of the economy.
