They should make this a new tradition. Every incoming president has to put up a plaque ragging on the previous one.

Imagine what 48 will have to say about Trump.

No words necessary. Just smear one of his diapers in the wall.

Just kidding, there won't be another president

Sometimes I like to imagine the specific practical actions required to make this. Like...

  • Trump dictates this weird message to an intern and says he wants a plaque about sleepy Joe by this afternoon.
  • Intern has to ask head intern about logistics of hanging a plaque in the hallway.
  • "Who makes plaques like this? Where do I even get it?"
  • Calling random plaque makers in the DC area asking how quickly they can make the plaque
  • Getting White House corporate card and filing procurement paperwork
  • Physically going to plaque maker to pick up plaque
  • Make it back just in time to get stupid plaque hung up on wall
  • "Wait, can I hang this myself? Can I really drill mount screws into the White House wall? Is there staff who has to help me put this up?"
  • Get stupid plaque up and get ready to leave for the day
  • Hear poopy diaper president throwing a hissy fit
  • "This isn't what I told you to put up! It's missing the second part!"
  • "Sorry Mr. President - I recorded your statement earlier if you want me to play it back-"
  • "No!!!!! I want a second plaque with the rest of what I said! It needs to say [insert second plaque statement here]"
  • "Yes Mr. President, right away."
  • Cancel plans for evening, frantically call plaque maker to see if they'll stay open, repeat

Has anyone checked behind the plaques for a hidey-hole/safe? The Epstein Files could be in there, after all...
