UPDATE (9:15am): The Hall of Presidents has reopened. Our original article continues below, unchanged.
A recent update to the Walt Disney World website confirms that Donald Trump will have a speaking role when the Hall of Presidents attraction reopens at Magic Kingdom. Disney says that the attraction is currently closed for refurbishment. A message about it opening “later this year” has been removed from the Walt Disney World website, which could indicate that the reopening is imminent. Disney says that Trump’s robot will recite the Presidential oath of office, as his robot did during his first term. Here’s the statement from Disney.
Donald Trump Returning to the Hall of Presidents
Watch the curtain rise to reveal startlingly realistic Audio-Animatronics replicas of every President of the United States—together for the very first time. Hear a speech delivered by George Washington and a recorded performance of the oath of office by President Donald Trump.
Take your seat in the stately theater, home to 3 massive digital projection screens and a grand proscenium. Watch an original film—developed by a Pulitzer Prize-winning historian—that tells the dramatic story of the nation’s founding.
Learn about the formation of our Constitution and the hard-fought struggles along the way—such as the American Revolution and the Civil War. Listen to the stirring words of John F. Kennedy echo through the theater and watch Abraham Lincoln—in attendance on stage—deliver his Gettysburg address.
The Donald Trump audio-animatronic appeared to be “fixed” after his first term in office was complete. For a before/after of the changes, check out our article below.
