Walt Disney World Updates Hall Of Presidents By Placing President Biden In Beach Chair
Entertainment · Sep 3, 2024 · BabylonBee.com

ORLANDO — The Hall of Presidents attraction at Walt Disney World Resort has been updated with a more realistic Joe Biden animatronic that is vacationing while asleep in a beach chair.

"When people think Biden — they think of an elderly man relaxing on a Delaware beach somewhere while the world burns," said Disney CEO Robert Iger. "We are proud of this true-to-life likeness."

Imagineers reportedly visited President Biden and recorded real audio of him snoring for the attraction. The lifelike animatronics were also updated to allow for a sitting position.

"It was actually really easy," said Imagineer Dirk Vantom on the work that went into the update. "We just laid him back in a beach chair. We actually spent more time deactivating most of his animatronics. Now he just sits there, seemingly dead except for the rise and fall of his abdomen to show that he's breathing."

At the attraction's grand re-opening, fans gushed when they saw the reimagined Joe Biden in action.

"Wow! He doesn't do anything — just like the real president!" said Disney World annual pass holder Steph Demetria after seeing the more realistic Joe Biden. "Uncanny!"

At publishing time, Donald Trump's animatronic was also updated to perform his signature dance and given a realistic bullet wound in his ear.
