Presidential plaque groupie Leavitt gushes that "many" of the "eloquent descriptions" were "written directly by" Trump

Washington — A walkway in the White House's West Wing that President Trump has dubbed the "Presidential Walk of Fame" now features partisan plaques installed under the portraits of his predecessors.

From "Sleepy Joe" Biden references to painting Republican icon Ronald Reagan as a fan of a young Mr. Trump, the plaques include language written in Trumpian style. The installation is the president's latest move to shape the White House in his image, an effort that has spanned from adding gilded decor in the Oval Office to razing the East Wing in preparation for a massive ballroom addition.

An introductory plaque tells passersby that the Presidential Walk of Fame was "conceived, built, and dedicated by President Donald J. Trump as a tribute to past Presidents, good, bad, and somewhere in the middle."

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said that the texts are "eloquently written descriptions of each president" and that "many were written directly by the president himself."

Well then, we are officially great again. Someone should ask our troll of a President if there have been any Billy goats tramp tramp tramping across his bridge. Sweet baby Jesus, we may not have hit rock bottom yet but we can certainly see it from here.
