The WHITE HOUSE should NOT have PARTISAN POLITICAL "COMMENTARY" about past presidents on display.

After paving over the Rose Garden, blinging up the Oval Office, and starting construction on his grand ballroom, the president now has a colonnade filled with gold-framed images of America’s past presidents, from Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter to Trump’s longtime nemesis, Barack Obama.

But instead of an image of Biden, the White House has put up a black and white photo of the device that was occasionally used to sign the former president’s signature, in a nod to what Trump often refers to as “one of the biggest scandals of all time.”

Trump has repeatedly criticized the former Biden administration for using an autopen to sign off on important documents at a time when the Democratic president was in cognitive decline.

He has also alleged that not only did aides use an autopen, but they may have done so without him knowing, and that many of the documents Biden signed, including presidential pardons, could be therefore void.
