US EditionTrump's White House 'Walk of Fame' Mocks Former Presidents
Plaques installed under former presidents' portraits reflect President Trump's partisan views, labeling Biden the worst and Obama divisive, reshaping the White House narrative.
- On Wednesday, White House staff updated the Presidential Walk of Fame with lengthy descriptions aligned with President Donald J. Trump’s rhetoric along the colonnade outside the West Wing.
- As part of an ongoing redesign, the White House added plaques to the Presidential Walk of Fame, with an introductory plaque framing it as conceived and dedicated by President Donald J. Trump.
- Plaques employ bombastic, Trumpian language, with Biden’s portrait replaced by an autopen photo and his plaque calling him `by far, the worst President in American History`.
- Joe Biden offered no comment and aides for Barack Obama and other former presidents did not immediately respond, while Karoline Leavitt, White House press secretary, said texts are `eloquently written descriptions` and `many were written directly by the President himself`.
- Placed where guests pass to the Oval Office, the exhibit can shape visitors’ views as President Donald J. Trump tours preferred guests, including foreign dignitaries, past the colonnade display.
