Donald Trump Faces Backlash Over Plaques Targeting Obama and Biden

The White House recently updated its ‘Walk of Fame,’ targeting Trump’s predecessors with new plaques and personal comments. The walk, initially adorned with black-and-white portraits of past presidents, now includes metal plaques beneath each image, summarizing their terms. However, Trump added his own touches, often criticizing former presidents.

For Barack Obama, Trump’s plaque called him “divisive,” criticizing his healthcare law, economic policies, and foreign actions, claiming he failed on multiple fronts. Joe Biden’s plaque, dubbed “Sleepy Joe,” accused him of corruption, economic disasters, and military blunders, also blaming him for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Hamas attacks.

In contrast, past leaders like Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon received praise. Reagan was called a “Great Communicator,” while Nixon was noted for a major political comeback. Trump’s own plaque proudly claimed he overcame law enforcement “weaponization” and assassination attempts, asserting he fulfilled promises and brought about national security.

The new plaques drew heavy criticism. Critics, including California’s Gavin Newsom and retired General Barry McCaffrey, dismissed the move as juvenile and damaging to presidential legacies. Many observers saw Trump’s comments as petty attempts to rewrite history and undermine his predecessors’ achievements, highlighting the ongoing political divide.
