There are three certainties in life – death, taxes, and Donald Trump laying in to Joe Biden.

He’s labelled his predecessor ‘Sleepy Joe’, mocked his age, and has taken aim at his stuttering speeches.

Now Trump’s pushed his trolling up a notch by replacing Biden’s portrait in the White House’s new Presidential Walk of Fame with an image of an autopen.

Yes, you read that right. Biden, the 46th president, is nowhere to be found.

The only trace is just a gold frame around his signature sat between two scouring images of Trump.

The autopen nods to Don’s claims the then-president would use an automatic tool to sign key documents – one the Biden administration denied.

In June, Trump ordered an investigation into the alleged use of autopen during Biden’s time as president.

The low blow has been slammed online as disrespectful and unprofessional – terms Trump has been called many times before.

Republicans Against Trump wrote: ‘Pathetic.’

Another added: ‘Joe Biden served honorably as President of the United States. Replacing his portrait with an autopen is petty and disrespectful.’

‘Biden defeated Donald five years ago and Donny still can’t stop crying. He’s fighting Biden with pictures. That’s how weak and childish Trump is. No wonder Putin and the world has no respect for him,’ one observed.

In the past Trump has accused Biden’s aides of using  autopen to control the Democrat into signing orders enacting open borders and transgender rights, policies Trump claims Biden didn’t actually support.

‘He didn’t have much of an idea what was going on. He shouldn’t be … I mean, essentially, whoever used the autopen was the president. And that is wrong. It’s illegal, it’s so bad and then it’s so disrespectful to our country,” Trump said.

But Trump himself has admitted using the autopen ‘for very unimportant papers.’

When pressed the US President specifically cited responding to people’s letters using the tool.

Why did Donald Trump have a strange patch on his hand?

For a man who made Joe Biden’s health a campaign theme, Donald Trump is suddenly facing his own round of awkward questions.

The US president appeared this week with a questionable smudge on his right hand, believed to be make-up hiding a large bruise.

The incident happened as the 79-year-old visited an exhibit at the People’s House museum in Washington DC.

Later in the day, during a World Cup event in the Oval Office, Trump kept his left hand folded over his right, but the layer of makeup was visible when he stood up.

This comes after the Republican was pictured with severely swollen ankles earlier this month – not exactly the vision of vigour from a man who insists he is in ‘excellent’ shape.

Both incidents have only fueled speculation about Trump’s health and how far his team will go to protect his image.

True to form, the White House has brushed off concerns about his health.

Press secretary Karoline Leavitt appeared to brush off concerns, reiterating the stance that bruising is caused by handshakes.

‘The president is a man of the people and meets more Americans, shaking hands daily, than any other president in history,’ she said.

‘His commitment is unwavering, and he proves that every single day.’

Last month, the White House disclosed that the president was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), a benign condition which is quite common in people aged over 70.

It has symptoms such as increased leg pain, skin issues, swelling and bloated ankles.

Leavitt said his condition was not causing him discomfort, but did not provide treatment details.

This is not the first time that the press secretary has used ‘shaking hands daily’ as an excuse for large bruises on Trump’s hands.

In February, his right hand again seemed bruised during his meeting with French president Emmanuel Macron, prompting speculation online over his health.

But just weeks later, the White House doctor, Captain Sean Barbabella, said that Trump is in ‘excellent cognitive and physical health’.

Dr Barbabella wrote in a memo: ‘President Trump exhibits excellent cognitive and physical health and is fully fit to execute the duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State.’

Now 79, Trump would be older than Biden at the end of his second term – making him the oldest US president.

The oldest president to take office for the first time was Joe Biden in 2021, at 78 years and two months – only five months younger than Trump.
