Not to get toooooo off-topic... There's perhaps some chance they a) change the show to a less-politicky film/animatronic attraction or b) double this up like with Mr. Lincoln. I don't see them replacing this with much else. Certainly not a proper ride. But the Mouse being how it is they could always put in a playground or something who knows.

could turn it into a lounge themed to a D.C. bar like the Off the Record, Hawk N Dove, or Union Pub

For me, hall of presidents, steam train, and riverboat are what bring me joy.

New animatronic looks fantastic. Third times the charm.
Did they redo the Trump one? I recall it looked more like Hillary than Trump when the put it in the first time around. I always figured they expected Hillary to win and were nearly done with her animatronics and then had to do a last minute rework when Trump won.

Yeah, this is the third version. The first looked really bad and like you said looked like a redressed figure meant to be someone else. The 2nd was a lot better but was a non-speaking one and this latest one looks the more realistic

Again, I wouldn't be surprised if HOP pulls a SGE at some point in the not too distant future and operates seasonally before "Temporarily" closing forever and not saying

I would just like to say that I am very pleased that this Attraction has reopened.
And I am equally pleased to see that the current President has been given a much more accurate looking likeness for his figure onstage.

Looking forward to seeing this in person again soon, with the new updated figure.

Happy Independence Day, fellow Americans!

I typed out a long post about how they're probably stuck keeping this regardless of how anyone feels because nothing else is going to thematically fit, but then I remembered they're putting Cars in Frontierland so it doesn't matter.

Yea he looks much better. Was it ever confirmed that 1.0 had a Hillary Clinton mold for a face? It had to be right?

Perfect: Liberty Square has now always been just Phineas and Ferb's project of the day and it was definitely always meant to be that. Yes, even in the 70s. Can the naysayers find anywhere saying it WASN'T something they made? Didn't think so.
I mean they have built a replica of an old west settlement twice. A colonial one wouldn’t be a huge stretch.

How about WALL-E?

British posters, what is the most British thing Disney has made? They should put that there. I'm sure they could write a great paragraph about how that fits very well.
Considering the Colonial American setting and its proximity to the Haunted Mansion, a story based on superstitions, set within the town of Sleepy Hollow as instructed by Headmaster Ichabod Crane might be appropriate. The facade updated to that of a schoolhouse.
