Trump wants his face on US currency, no matter that it's illegal

The Department of Treasury is in talks to mint a $1 coin that will feature President Donald Trump's face, a move the administration says will mark the 250th anniversary of the country.

U.S. Treasurer Brandon Beach confirmed in a post on X that his department is in talks to mint the Trump coin. Beach responded to right-wing media personality Steve Guest, who posted an image of the possible coin, writing, "No fake news here. These first drafts honoring America’s 250th Birthday and @POTUS are real. Looking forward to sharing more soon, once the obstructionist shutdown of the United States government is over.”

One side of the coin would feature a profile of Trump's face with his droopy turkey chin, while the back would feature an image of Trump with his fist in the air in front of an America flag with the text "FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT," the words Trump spoke after the attempt on his life in July 2024.

“Despite the radical left’s forced shutdown of our government, the facts are clear: Under the historic leadership of President Donald J. Trump, our nation is entering its 250th anniversary stronger, more prosperous, and better than ever

Put his face on one side and his oversized ass on the other. Then you'd have a real heads and tails.

1) Take the coin out of circulation. Put it in a jar.

2) When reason and sanity is restored to the country, take the jar to a bank and ask for it to be converted to an account deposit or to paper money.

I'm open to ideas for somehow destroying them without cost to the possessor.

A question for you, if you don't mind. Which would be heads, and which would be tails?

for the cost of 'one dollar''----


If he managed to get his face upon a bigger bill,
I probably couldn't afford that...

'course I could run it through my computer printer, and just use THAT......

Literally.

And every day they pile more bat$hit crazy on top of still steaming bat$hit crazy.

And half the country will rejoice this coin, even as their health and wealth is taken from them and their friends and family.
