Letters to the editor: Trump's new disparaging presidential plaques are 'despicable'


My stomach churned when I read the despicable statements President Trump has inserted on plaques beneath the presidential portraits, including citing President Obama's signature achievement as "the highly ineffective 'Unaffordable Care Act'"

Unlike the other gilded portraits, President Biden is represented by a photograph of an autopen, which Trump disparaged Biden's use of and associated with his age.

True to form, Trump extols himself in his plaque.

To think that those coming to the White House will be subjected to this atrocity is unthinkable.

Congress, I beg you to rise up against this destructive force that is tearing apart the history that we hold dear.

Is that they will be COMPLETELY DISMANTLED and trashed after that fucking asshole is gone.

Sure, go ahead, asswipe, put your name on the Kennedy Center. Just a matter of time before your name is ERASED COMPLETELY from society.

Tick, tock douchebag.

Tick tock.

You live in the people’s house so if civilized protocol is disturbing to you move out or avoid those sections of the house that disturb you. If you need to label things by undignified signage in order to navigate the property for safety’s sake it would ‘be best’ for you to hire someone to accompany you when moving about. History belongs to the people. Courtesy and respect belong to all of us. It is part of being human. Once again if these things disturb you that is your problem not anyone else's. We will no longer tolerate your disrespect of our culture. We will not tolerate you destroying public property or advertising lies about past occupants of the White House. You are an acting elected official not a dictator. There is no such title here.
