A series of plaques written for portraits featured in The White House have been mocked by talk show host Jimmy Kimmel.
The paragraphs of text now appearing under the presidential portraits feature frequent mentions of Donald Trump, who was confirmed to have written a handful of the texts. Plaques were added to the presidential portraits just a short while after President Joe Biden’s portrait was replaced with a picture of an autopen. Trump has baselessly claimed any law signed with Biden’s autopen is invalid and that it had been used by Michelle Obama to pardon “Radical Democrat criminals”.
Trump’s writing for the plaques was confirmed by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who says Trump’s interest in history is what prompted him to pen the paragraphs. She said, “As a student of history, many were written directly by the President himself.”
The paragraph on the plaque below Biden’s presidency, for instance, reads, “He left office issuing blanket pardons to Radical Democrat criminals and thugs, as well as members of the Biden Crime Family – But despite it all, President Trump would get Re-Elected in a Landslide, and SAVE AMERICA!”
Other plaques now featured in the White House included a comment on President Barack Obama being “one of the most divisive political figures in American History” and frequent boasts of Trump besting Hilary Clinton in the 2016 election.
A plaque for President Bill Clinton makes note that Hilary Clinton also lost the 2016 Presidency to Trump. A note on President Ronald Reagan’s plaque alleges the two-term Republican president was “a fan of President Donald J. Trump long before President Trump’s Historic run for the White House.”
Speaking of the plaques, talk show host Jimmy Kimmel said, “Reagan was a fan of his long before he ran for president. Ronald Reagan died in 2004. He was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s 10 years before that. What was he a fan of exactly? Trump’s Pizza Hut commercials? What a sad individual.”
“He knows deep down in the pit where his soul should be, in that pot where all the undigested fried chicken piles up, he knows that no one respects him. He knows they all just want something from him. He knows the world is laughing at him and that his brain and face are like a creamsicle melting on the sidewalk.”
“So he calls up a trophy shop and says, ‘grab a pen, lets make some plaques.’ It takes a special kind of lunatic to get his insults cast in bronze. Can we please put this man in a home before he destroys the one he’s in now?”
