During an Oval Office executive order signing ceremony, President Donald Trump took a sharp jab at former President Joe Biden, mocking his use of an autopen to sign official documents. Trump questioned whether he could do the same, reigniting claims that Biden’s reliance on the device was potentially illegal. While the autopen has been used for decades in Washington, House Republicans have raised concerns and are planning a formal investigation into Biden’s use of the signature machine. Trump’s comments have brought renewed scrutiny to an otherwise obscure presidential tool.
