US President Donald Trump unveiled a “Presidential Walk of Fame” outside the White House, featuring portraits of every past commander-in-chief- except Joe Biden, whose space instead displays a photo of an autopen machine. The walkway, located along the West Wing Colonnade, showcases framed images of the nation’s leaders. In place of Joe Biden’s headshot, Donald Trump ordered an image of an autopen signing Joe Biden’s name, a jab at his Democratic predecessor whom he has long derided as unfit for office.

The snub comes after Donald Trump repeated false claims of voter fraud at the United Nations General Assembly this week, mocking Joe Biden in front of more than 100 world leaders.

Mocking Joe Biden With An Autopen

Donald Trump had previously hinted he would use an autopen photo for Joe Biden’s slot on the walkway, citing baseless allegations that aides signed documents on Joe Biden’s behalf without his knowledge. He has also questioned the legitimacy of pardons and legislation signed using the device, though presidents from both parties have relied on the autopen to execute official business. A Republican-led House committee is currently investigating Joe Biden’s use of it.

Donald Trump’s Changes At The White House

The “Presidential Walk of Fame” is the latest in a string of aesthetic changes Donald Trump has made since returning to office. He has added gold detailing to the Oval Office walls, erected massive new flagpoles on the North and South Lawns, replaced the Rose Garden grass with stone patio and begun building a new ballroom.
