The Democrat Party has snubbed their most recent president in their Easter Sunday message.
‘Better times at the White House,’ read a Sunday morning post on the account, which was accompanied by a photo of one of the back of former President Barack Obama‘s and head and an easter bunny head, with the duo looking at the Washington monument in between them.
Joe Biden, Obama’s VP who served as President from 2021 to 2025, was not mentioned or pictured in the post – despite being the most recent Democrat in the Oval Office.
During Biden’s last Easter as president he was already rumored to have been dealing with cognitive issues, and even had a few gaffes.
Biden was mocked online in 2024 after he tripped over his words and referred to ‘oyster bunnies’ instead of the ‘Easter bunnies’ during his opening remarks at the annual Easter Egg roll hosted on the White House South Lawn.
‘By the way, say hello to oyster bunnies! Come on up here bunnies, so they can see you, c’mon get in there,’ he said at the time to the two large costumed Easter bunnies dressed for the occasion.
Rightwing commentators on X were quick to point out the Biden snub in Sunday’s Easter post.
Former Trump 2020 campaign communications director Tim Murtaugh also chimed in, writing, ‘Check you out erasing Joe Biden.’

Some liberals were also surprisingly keen to blast the post.

TrackAIPAC co-founder Cory Archibald told the person behind the Democrats’ X account to ‘Stop nostalgiaposting for the bygone days of indiscriminate drone strikes and persecuting whistleblowers that paved the way for the exact moment we are in,’ before adding that ‘one of the last things Obama did was expand the surveillance powers of the presidency literally days before Trump was sworn in.’
Kamala Harris fan Sky quote-tweeted the original post of Obama with a picture of former vice-president Harris and her hubby and former second gent Doug, with the caption ‘Happier times.’
The most recent Democrat to sit in the Oval was also left out in a similar fashion last year.
‘Happy Easter!’ read a 2025 post on the same official Dem X account, which included photos of former President Obama, as well as Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, John F. Kennedy.
During the first Easter of his second term last year, Trump blasted Biden as the ‘WORST and most Incompetent President, a man who had absolutely no idea what he was doing,’ before wishing his fellow Americans ‘with great love, sincerity, and affection, a very Happy Easter.’
In 2026, Trump kicked off Easter issuing a new threat to Iran, promising to ‘blow everything up and take over the oil’ if the country does not make a deal with the US soon.
Trump is expected to host an Easter Dinner at the White House on Sunday evening, and the annual White House Easter Egg Roll on Monday.
