Disney adds Trump robot to its Hall of Presidents
CNN ^ | December 19, 2017

Posted on 12/19/2017 3:32:54 PM PST by billorites

The Hall of Presidents at the Magic Kingdom Park at Disney World in Florida is set to reopen Tuesday -- featuring a new robot President Donald Trump. Trump's robot is introduced by a George Washington robot, and he has a speaking role. The President recorded his remarks for The Hall of Presidents, just as every sitting president has done for the attraction since the early 1990s, according to the Disney blog. A video posted online shows the Trump robot saying, "From the beginning, America has been a nation defined by its people. At our founding, it was the American people who rose up to defend our freedoms and win our Independence."

The robot continues: "Above all, to be American is to be an optimist. To believe that we can always do better, and that the best days of our great nation are still ahead of us." The show was originally set to open in late June ahead of the Fourth of the July holiday, but a blog post from Disney revealed that Trump had not yet done his recording at the time. "We have been working closely with the current White House — just as we have with previous administrations — and the President's recording session has been scheduled," the blog post said. "Despite some media reports to the contrary, President Trump will have a speaking role." The show has robotic figures of several past presidents, including Abraham Lincoln, Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. To make the robot as close to true-life as possible, Disney asked that the White House provide Trump's exact measurements.

First problem:

Doesn't look so much like Trump, but more like Buddy Ebsen in Barnaby Jones.

Second, what's Christopher Lloyd doing hanging out in the back left? Some Back to the Future reference I guess.

Whole thing is really creepy.

Do they have a Burger King robot so the Barack Obama robot can bow to it?

You’re right—lousy likeness; shouldn’t pay artist.

Looks like that actor you can't quite name ...

Rutger Hauer?

But most of the robots don't quite look like who they;re supposed to be.

Between shows, the Obama audio-animatronics figure chews on cannabinoid gummy bears and plays video games....and bugs the Reagan robot to orally pleasure him in exchange for cocaine.

Of course. Some liberal tried to make it look as bad as possible.

Not surprised Disney put it up.
