Trump Declares All Biden Autopen Documents Null and Void

I don't know how the courts will handle this.

Trump made the announcement on his Truth Social platform, as he often does. The Friday afternoon post stated, "Any document signed by Sleepy Joe Biden with the Autopen, which was approximately 92% of them, is hereby terminated, and of no further force or effect. The Autopen is not allowed to be used if approval is not specifically given by the President of the United States." It is unclear how significantly this could impact governmental programs and policies, but certainly it will shake up the federal government.

Next, Trump went so far as to say that Joe Biden was so totally incompetent mentally and physically that he had nothing whatsoever to do with the autopen scandal and would be lying if he said he did.

The president insisted, "The Radical Left Lunatics circling Biden around the beautiful Resolute Desk in the Oval Office took the Presidency away from him. I am hereby cancelling all Executive Orders, and anything else that was not directly signed by Crooked Joe Biden, because the people who operated the Autopen did so illegally. Joe Biden was not involved in the Autopen process and, if he says he was, he will be brought up on charges of perjury. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

I suspect they will claim that any document with the claimed signature of the president is presumptively real and therefore lawful, and that any undoing of that presumption must be on a case-by-case basis and by clear and convincing proof.
