Overview

  • The installation lines the West Wing Colonnade with gold-framed presidential portraits, with Biden’s spot showing a photo of an autopen signing his name.
  • White House communications adviser Margo Martin posted a video on X unveiling the display outside the Oval Office.
  • The autopen image appears between portraits of Trump’s 45th and 47th presidencies, and guests at a Rose Garden dinner can view the display.
  • Trump had previewed the move in a Daily Caller interview earlier this month, saying Biden would be represented by an autopen image.
  • Republicans have used Biden’s autopen use to question his decision-making, while critics note autopen signatures have been used by presidents of both parties.
