President Donald Trump was widely mocked after he debuted a new cursive sign for the White House Rose Garden this week that tells you where you are in unabashedly gaudy script.

The new sign is off-center and can be seen on the awning above the Presidential "Walk of Fame" that features insulting plaques installed beneath the portraits of former Democratic presidents.


You can see the sign in the photo below.

California Governor Gavin Newsom immediately seized on the image and posted a doctored version featuring a sign reading "The Pedo Garden," a clear attack on Trump for being implicated in the Epstein files.

The new sign was posted just weeks after Trump was mocked for putting up a sign that features the words “The Oval Office” in golden script next to an exterior door near the Rose Garden that was a little too "Live, Laugh, Love" for everyone's taste.

People aren't too impressed with this sign either.


The Trump administration has previously come under fire for its changes to the White House's overall aesthetic, often done to the point of, critics say, disrespecting historical significance.

In 2021, then-former First Lady Melania Trump lashed out at Michael Beschloss, a prominent historian, after he criticized her sense of style while noting that a year had passed since her controversial renovation of the White House Rose Garden, which had been established by First Lady Ellen Wilson, wife of President Woodrow Wilson.

The renovation involved clearing nearly all of the garden’s existing plants, trees, and flowers, tearing out an outdated irrigation system to install a modern one, upgrading the audio/visual setup, adding new paver walkways, and replanting nearly everything from the ground up.

When it was unveiled, reactions were sharply divided—largely along partisan lines. Some viewed the redesign as a nod to Trump’s taste for opulence, while others accused Melania Trump of turning a lush garden into a shadow of what it once was.

Osment, who began acting at age five, is one of a rare breed in Hollywood—a child star turned successful adult actor. It's a journey many kids have infamously stumbled on, but that Jordan has also successfully navigated perhaps in part thanks to Osment.

The message identified its sender as Texans for Common Sense, a political action committee funded entirely by Texans United for a Conservative Majority PAC, a far-right organization backed by West Texas oil billionaire Tim Dunn.
