Disney World's Hall of Presidents Trumpbot will speak after all

Disney has denied rumors that the Trumpbot in Disney World's Hall of the Presidents would not have a speaking role due to a combination of the president's toxic reputation, Disney employees' animus for him, and Trump's own unwillingness to schedule a recording session.


Disney Parks editorial content director Thomas Smith writes in a blog post that Disney is working closely with the White House on Trump's words and a recording session with the president has been scheduled.


The attraction closed in January so Trump's figure could be added. Smith says it will reopen late this year with a new show and upgraded theater.
