All I can say is thank god I got to see this version before it went away. Not looking forward to the new animatronic carrying on about how he's gonna deport the Three Caballeros.
I love how these animatronics look at each other after their names are called during the presidential roll call. Gives that sense of realism, As though they acknowledge each other throughout the course of time. Basically, the Hall of Presidents is an extended version of Walt Disney's original attraction "Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln" at Disneyland.
I'm so sick of reading political nonsense and hateful comments on sites like The Dis and other Disney blogs which I go to for a small escape from exactly all that for a while. I guess I just need to watch the videos from now on and skip the commentaries. Thank you for sharing the magic with me....so I can still be part of Disney while I'm away from home.
Farewell to President Obama, one of the greatest presidents of all time. The thought of Trump in this attraction is just laughable....the old Sesame Street song comes to mind "one of these things is not like the other, one of these things just doesn't belong".
Kevin Schettko no hate here. I just don't think Trump is qualified or has the character, integrity, or temperament to hold the most prestigious job in the world. I could go on but wont. I love my country and I'm ashamed of what is representing us. Peace and good will to you! And...God bless America!
Thank you so much. I am going to miss this version of the attraction so very much. President Obama is the reason this is my favorite attraction across Disney property. This made me shed a tear. I'm now wondering who they will get to voice the attraction and I'm also really hoping that the Supreme Court ruling on gay marriage is included in the new version.
This was definitely my favorite version, politics aside. Love Morgan Freeman, but I do miss Maya Angelou's narration from the Clinton version, guess I'm nostalgic because that's the one I remember most from when I was a kid. Never saw the W one since I never got to WDW in those years. I do hope they keep the balance between uplifting content and not totally sanitizing things like it was way back in the old school script. I also hope they keep President Obama as a speaking animatronic similar to Washington et al given the historic nature of his presidency.
sinistralwing I actually had a very similar discussion yesterday about hoping they would keep President Obama on as a speaking animatronic. I'm crossing my fingers that Disney does the attraction justice, I don't expect them to water the new script down, though. Here's to hoping 🍺
Is the trump one going to have to have the insane hand motions and him yelling 'make America great again' and 'building a wall' ? Or are Disney going to try and at least make him...watchable...
Can you even imagine what Trump's speech would be like? I honestly cannot picture him saying anything humble, (deservedly) humbling, inspirational, unifying, or even optimistic, because he never has. His inaugural address was probably the most 'uplifting' speech he'll ever give, and it was objectively bad and inappropriate. I predict he'll make a point of: 1. Glorifying himself 2. Bragging about winning the election 3. Taking credit for his predecessor's accomplishments or positive residual effects of the previous administration 4. Telling the audience about how terrible our country is right now 5. Saying that he alone can "fix" it 6. Praising his supporters 7. Saying "yuge" and possibly "bigly", and maybe even "braggadocious" 8. Throwing in a few provable lies just to get the audience's blood boiling

Watching on November 7th 2020 and Obama's section brought a tear to my eye. I have renewed hope for the future of America.
Fun fact, the Animatronic used for President Obama, is the same one they used for George W Bush, just reprogrammed for Obama's movements, and voice
Thank you for posting the video. It made me teary.

sinistralwing What are you taking about? Jose filled out his papers! 😊
lThey are not illegal
as a brazilian I must say that is the most racist and at the same time funny stuff I've seen so far
This comment didn't age well
One of my favorite attractions.

does anyone know if they are adding fast pass for this once they add trump
Kevin Schettko Why would they need fastpass for this?
Mickey784cr it'll obviously be more popular because of Trump
Trump lost by 3 millions votes though, so if anything it'll be less popular
Tom Brokaw haha it doesn't matter, people will want to see it regardless who they voted for. Supporters to celebrate him, the liberals to cry over it
Lori Hackney He could have lost by 50 million votes... it doesn't matter, he's still president
Thank you for posting this, and of course for eerything else you do (but especially this 😍🇺🇸

Michelle Iadarola I hope people with hate like you are not aloud in Disney world
Michelle Iadarola 44 human animatronics and 1 cheeto animatronic.

You sound like the hag on the Air Alaska flight...
Are you being serious I can't tell.

This iteration had such a great script.
Obama got to smoke the presidential kush

Amy Shepherd Do the others do "political points?"
Well, this is off my list of things to do at Magic Kingdom.
I can't picture Donald Trump as animatronic
Where's Trump?
capwkidd Wait until this summer, then he'll be here.
I can not wait until President Trump gets his own animatronic body and speaks for all the people to hear. Making America Great Again!!!
It's a shame Disney has to put him in. He's a disgrace to our great nation.
Tom Brokaw 304 electoral college votes say no. 🇺🇸
I'd type what President Trump should probably say based on his previous episodes, but that would hardly be kid appropriate.
The three million more people who voted for Hillary over trump say yes. 🇺🇸
HAHAHAHA no hes not, and same @karen Geyman
Is that Morgan Freeman
Weeping.
Mr obama what are you doing here?
BO looks like Bush😂😅🤣🤪
Just waiting to Add Kamala Harris the first Woman President of the United States
Doesn't really look like Obama.
LMAO Morgan Freeman would
😂😂🤣 I was wondering if that was him.

Things that didn't happen
I enjoyed this very much. Lovely words by President Barack Obama. It' will be a travesty after this one.
Why not add Marthen Luther king j. Bc he did do black rights and I think he should be in the hall :D
Doesn't work if he never ran for President.
He wasn’t a president. They should make a hall of heroes with him in there :)
I can't wait to go and not see Barack Hussein Obama anymore Donald Trump that's what I'm waiting for
kturob he'll still be there, duh, just like the other past presidents.....ugh.
@JADEN JAYA that sucks
