Trump "Walk of Fame" trolls Biden with autopen signature in place of portrait

25-09-2025 01:29 PM


Ammon News - The White House unveiled a new "Presidential Walk of Fame" Wednesday that shows an autopen machine instead of former President Biden's portrait.

The display reflects President Trump's ongoing effort to delegitimize Biden's final acts as president, particularly the preemptive pardons issued to Jan. 6 committee members.

An autopen is a device which makes automatic or remote signatures, which Trump, Biden and other presidents have acknowledged using.

Trump and his allies have claimed documents signed by Biden using autopen may be invalid.

Trump did so as recently as last week during a news conference in the U.K.

Biden told The New York Times in July he "made every decision" and had orally granted all the pardons and commutations he issued at the end of his presidency.

He said he used the autopen on his record-setting number of pardons and commutations because "we're talking about a whole lot of people."

Former President Obama faced scrutiny in 2011 for using an autopen to sign the Patriot Act's extension, a first for a president.
