Newest additions appear to be part of the administration’s ongoing ‘troll’ campaign against former presidents and Trump’s opponents
White House staff updated the so-called “Presidential Walk of Fame” Wednesday by adding lengthy descriptions of each former president, in rhetoric that aligns with Donald Trump’s – such as calling former President Joe Biden “the worst President in American History.”
As part of the president’s ongoing effort to customize the White House to his liking, Trump set his well-known opinions of each former president in stone by adding plaques underneath the portraits that now hang along the colonnade.
But rather than neutrally describing each president, Trump chose to invoke more color – claiming former President Barack Obama is “one of the most divisive political figures” and asserting former President Ronald Reagan “was a fan.”

This is ordered by the man who was proud to be thin-skinned and spent their whole lives trying to be in the spotlight more than anyone else. He doesn't care why, he just wants to be the most famous of anyone.
Literally screams childhood abandonment syndrome. It'd almost be sad if he wasn't such a terrible person who spent their whole life destroying everyone's lives.

Electing a relatable president that one identifies is understandable. Stupid, but understandable. Unfortunately a large chunk of the American electorate are apparently fucking assholes.

That's optimistic. In terms of physical changes, it will take a couple years; in terms of law and policy changes, it will take decades if it can ever be undone.
But in terms of global standing, reputation, trust, credit, etc? That shit is never coming back. Only a fucking moron would agree to any strong partnership with the US knowing that every 4 years there's a significant chance that their leader could be a demented, spoiled brat who will tear everything apart and nobody will stop him from doing the most batshit insane cruelties imaginable. Once is a fluke; we elected this dumbass traitor twice, and we did nothing about his atrocities after the first go.
This stupid asshole wrecked everything, and we still haven't truly felt even a small fraction of the damage yet.

He's far from done, it's not even been a yearm USA is pretty much done at this point, I doubt their will be anything close to a reel election before decades, if it ever happen again. The real question is much of the rest of the world pedonald will take down with him.

Personally, I don't see it happening.
Orange traitor can die. Still leaves an alarming percentage of absolutely braindead fascists in our nation. That can't really end any other way than catastrophically. Couple that with the extremely wealthy hording more and more of our wealth and I'd say we're pretty much cooked as a nation.

calling former President Joe Biden “the worst President in American History.”
The only argument for that being that he didn't take the necessary steps to ensure Trump would never be president again. What those steps are is left up to the reader.

Probably riddled with outlandish exaggerations and flights of fancy such as:
A human being, an adequate father and husband, and a qualified leader. President Trump was famously literate, and regularly formed coherent sentences. His body was completely normal and multiple people were capable of tolerating his naked form without the threat of, or application of, force. He did not need a night light.

White House adds plaques below Biden and Obama portraits, calling them ‘the worst President in American history’ and ‘divisive’
