Disney World's Hall of Presidents is a sit-down ride for all ages featuring animatronic representations of every American president. It is ideally a celebration of American history and realistically a place for tired, sunburnt parents to just sit in the air conditioning for a few blessed moments.
It is also currently closed, as the park shutters the attraction for renovations — namely, installing a new figure — after every presidential inauguration. The unusual length of 2017's closure since President Trump took office led to reports that Disney was unsure of how to craft a family-friendly Robo-Trump. Would he talk? What would he say? So many of his quotes are less than magical.
