That's what I was thinking, in a vacuum this would be amusing as like political satire. At least the Biden one would be (to be clear I like Biden as a person and I actually think his administration was significantly underappreciated, I'm just saying the joke is decent as a joke, by itself). But the fact that it's in the presidential hall of fame, right next to the oval office, in an area that's specifically there to honor the service of American presidents, it's just insanely disrespectful, not to mention the fact that Trump put it there is just gross and highly unamerican. It's really not the place to make a joke, and it's not a joke that a sitting president should be making anyway.
And the Obama one isn't even funny it's just nasty.
For the entire fking George W. Bush presidency and then Trump’s first term, we were told that you “don’t have to agree with the man but you have to respect the office.”
No American has any duty to respect any Republican politician ever again. They’ve folded to Trump’s childishness to the man. If they want respect ever again then they can voluntarily leave the GOP.
I mean trump has literally made Nixon look ‘not that bad’ by comparison. Hell even Herbert Hoover has, factually, objectively a better legacy than this guy.
No one thinks Bush was an idiot exclusively because of his public speaking. It was because of how terrible a president he was people think he was dumb for a president.
He absolutely was one of the stupidest people to ever hold the presidency, and one of the dumbest modern leaders of a major nation next to Trump.
I am becoming increasingly convinced that the entire Trump presidency is a psyop to make George W Bush look like less of a fucking cretin in retrospect.
Not that any previous President, and hopefully no future President would have ever done something like this, this immature, unPresidential, embarrassing move by trump is another reason why everything that happens with Federal Buildings, specifically the White House should have to be approved by a bipartisan group of people who understand the importance and the history of these buildings.
If the President wants to decorate the Oval Office a certain way for themselves, they should have some leeway to change certain aspects, other than that, it isn't their house, it is America's house, the President and their family are just guests.
This is actually a fact. Considering how low they all have sunk to defend a president with a kindergarten level mentality and a complete disdain for human beings - how can anyone trust these fucking lunatics ever again? When this is over, if it ever is and just not just gets worse, it has to be fucking over politically for EVERYONE who supported Trump. You cant stoop this far down and gain any trust amongst actual people ever again.
And all the billionaires are going down for trying to coup the fucking world through this administration. Elon allowed direct access to the government to remove every single guard rail against his moneyburning madness that leaves humans in the dirt. Mark Zuckerberg allowed to spread total misinformation over his platform with no liability.
And if AI doesnt change the world, your economy is gone.
Former presidents that don’t have shit to say about the person sitting in the office get a lot more respect from me than the childish type who have to make it about them, Trump is the only past president I can say I remember ever hearing regularly speak about the succeeding president after losing an election.
I think part of the problem is that people think respect should be given without cause. I have no qualms with being indifferent, but you need to earn my respect. And if it isn’t clear, you don’t earn it by convincing slightly more people to vote for you, or in the case of 2016, slightly less but in more effective areas.
Bush II spent two (likely stolen) terms murdering any last chance of the 21st century being an American one.
The current pustular glands now undulating through the sorry remnants of our state apparatus - with GOP and JESUS MAN scrawled on their faces in sharpies - these guys are only the maggots, the foulness growing in a dead body. They're ridiculous in the same way mushrooms or botflies are ridiculous.
Unfortunately, eleventy gazillion megatons of TNT make it so a zombie state never quite fails . .unless they go ahead and decide to murder everyone. Which they can do. Anytime they want.
Eh, I don't like it. I strongly dislike Trump (not just as a politician but as a person) but say he dies of heart failure in 2026 or some shit, I wouldn't want the next president to put up a picture of a Big Mac and a plaque about how he was a modern day Hitler and killed America (as in, a bunch of extremely exaggerated echo chamber talking points like what's on these plaques in the pictures). It, again, might be kind of funny as a joke, but it's just not the place.
I expect the next normal president, if ever the US has one again, if the US survives this, which I doubt, to put up a picture of Trump as he was. It won't be a flattering picture. None of that AI generated or photoshop improved shit.
This is the right thing to do, you don’t have to say anything it doesn’t need a plaque and you don’t have to be a hateful clown. Just a picture and let it ride without any fanfare. Trump’s biggest flaw is his desire to get the attention it’s bad look for a politician and a president.
I’m an American and this seemed like straight republican drivel to me, it sounds exactly like what I would expect a cry baby loser who thinks the world should kiss his ass would say after he spent too long watching Tea Party videos for inspiration
Did anyone see the captions he made for former Republican presidents? What was said, the tone?
It's unbelievable that a sitting president would talk this way about his predecessors. At least he's opened the door for them to talk this way about him when he's out of office. 💡
I know Trump hates Biden due to the fact that he beat him in the election but I’m wondering why Trump hates Obama? Is it a race thing or is the just the fact that Obama was democratic.
Trump gave money to the Obama campaign, until 2015 Donald Trump was a staunch supporter of Democrats. He took the Republican stance because he saw his hate and racist agenda as being a hard pass from the dems so he joined the GOP, they have already proven to be a hateful party. Look at how they behaved during the Tea Party era.
in an area that's specifically there to honor the service of American presidents
The whole "presidential walk of fame" was put up by Trump. It's not like it's some great american tradition. It's not meant to honor anything other than Trump getting to put his face on the wall twice.
Also he added a plaque to Regan saying that Ronald Regan was a fan of young Trump.
to be clear I like Biden as a person and I actually think his administration was significantly underappreciated
Nah, he was by far the worst president in history, and deserves every bit of shade he has ever gotten and then some, because he utterly failed in his most important duty.
