President Donald Trump is once again making decorative changes to the White House – while underestimating former President Joe Biden.

The White House installed a new presidential gallery along the western wing of the western wing on Wednesday. While the new “Presidential Avenue of Doxa” Includes portraits of all presidents in gold -plated frames, Biden’s portrait is replaced by a photo of a … automatic pen and a document bearing its signature.

Trump had left implicitly about it, in an interview with the newspaper The Daily Caller Earlier this month: “It’s a decision to make. We will upload a photo of the automatic pen »he had said.

The Republican has long criticized Biden’s use of the automatic pen, an ordinary method of signing official documents when signatories cannot sign them. The pen has been used by former presidents on both sides of Parliament.

Trump had occasionally claimed that Biden did not have the intellectual competence of performing his duties during his presidency due to the use of an automatic penny for signing laws and grace. In addition, he had proposed to be considered invalid by the grace signed by the former president using technology.

Biden rejected Trump’s allegations

“Let me be clear: During my presidency, I made decisions on grace, executive decrees, legislation and declarations. Any claim that I didn’t do it is ridiculous and false »Biden said in a statement.

Portrait

‘It’s not the first time’

The colonnade is a flagship part of the White House since it was built during its presidency Thomas Jefferson. The outdoor corridor has been used by presidents and their staff to move quickly between the western wing and the executive.

The gallery is part of the wider changes that Trump made to the White House premises, which include paving over the grass and addition “Rose Garden Club”.

Work is also under way to build a new, large dance hall advertised by the US president.

This is not the first time Trump has been trying to use his power to eliminate “symbols” of those with whom he disagrees with the White House.

In June, the White House removed a portrait of Hillary Clintonof the former first lady and foreign minister, as he was Trump’s opponent in the 2016 election. Clinton’s portrait was replaced with a red, white and blue table of Trump. Then, in August, he carried portraits of former presidents Barack Obama, George Bush of the younger and George Bush The elder from the entrance of the White House, to have a less prominent position.
