California Governor Gavin Newsom, who is widely seen as a frontrunner for the Democratic nomination for president in 2028, mocked the Treasury’s announcement.

“Now Americans will know exactly who to blame as they’re paying more for groceries, gas, rent, and health care,” Newsom said in a post on social media.

The Trump administration’s latest precedent-busting move comes a week after the US Commission of Fine Arts, led by Trump appointee Rodney Mims Cook Jr, approved the minting of a commemorative gold coin bearing the Republican president’s image.

The announcement, which relied on a loophole in a law that prohibits depictions of living presidents on circulating currency, prompted backlash from critics, who likened the move to the behaviour of dictators and monarchs.

Trump, who aggressively pushed his personal brand during his career as a real estate mogul, has attached his name to a growing list of institutions and projects since returning to the White House, including the John F Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the US Institute of Peace and an upcoming class of battle ships.

Is this legal?

>>1500834
Why wouldn't it be?

More stupid bullshit for future governments to clean up

>>1500836
Democrats won't do jack shit if they ever return to power. It'll be we must "look forward, not backwards" and "when they go low, we go high."

>>1500835
No one did that

>>1500832
Propaganda like this is just more proof trump is the anti christ.

>>1500834
The only thing trump is doing that is blatantly illegal when it comes to currency is making a coin with his face on it. Since the law clearly states you cannot be put on currency if you're still alive.
We'll see if the republican control courts side with the

>>1500862
That's only if they elect the same type of limp dick moderates that have controlled the party starting with Clinton. The actual rank and file voter want full vengeance.

>That's only if they elect the same type of limp dick moderates that have controlled the party starting with Clinton. The actual rank and file voter want full vengeance.
That's what will happen, and the base will just have to suck it up. First, independents tolerance for right wing rhetoric is far higher than it is for left wing rhetoric. They're more sensitive to socialism than they are to fascism or dominionism, and are okay with voting for a Fuentes than a Sanders. Second, and relating to the above, media has a bias towards the insincere, inauthentic, slimy, lizardmen moderate politicians that everyone fucking hates. The media may not be good at getting you to like these people, but they are good at getting you to either hate everyone else or getting certain demographics to not care and thus not vote. Third, and relating to the above, is the way money is pulling the party. Even though money is largely against the left, they'll still hedge their bets or sabotage the Dems. This is why they're pushing Harris to run in the presidential again. They understand that that will force the Dems to have to relitigate Biden instead of focusing on Trump. Lastly, everyone understands that you can't withhold your vote, because politics has become a game of lesser evil harm reduction on the left. The quality of the Republican candidates allows the Democrats to scrape the bottom of their barrel, and vice versa (though I'd argue Trump is actually high quality as he is everything the Republican base wants).

>>1500862
Could be a future republican government erasing Trump’s legacy from the permanent record

>>1500869
Trump is the most unpopular president in history and lost 25% popularity from his own base since swearing in. You’re so full of shit lol

>>1500871
Dude, his base just wants him to insult, annoy, embarrass, inconvenience, hurt, and kill the people they don't like, and he's been doing that with flying colors. They consider a bit of collateral worth it.

>>1500872
Point is his base is shrinking

>>1500834
It'll be legal to destroy that currency to force it out of the system once Trump is run out of office.
Cutting out Trumps signature and turning the mutilated currency to a bank will have them replace it with fresh bills, and you can just keep cutting out Trumps signature and getting fresh bills back

>>1500875
By taking most of them out of circulation it will just make them more valuable to collectors.

>>1500877
That’s nice.

>>1500877
Just like removing CP from the internet makes the remaining videos more valuable to collectors

>>1500875
We should keep it and other Trump changes just as a reminder so the news and republicans can't memory hole Trump like they did with his first term and Bush.

>>1500873
They said on Fox and Friends that if George Washington and Abraham Lincoln came back and ran as president and vice-president, they couldn't beat Trump. He still has a good 70-80% of his base, and likely 90-100% would vote for him again. What is actually happening is that Trump is radicalizing Democrats and angering/scaring independents.

>>1500875
Fun fact banks are required to accept all legal us tender, regardless of its condition, so long as it contains over 50% of the bill (otherwise you could double your money by cutting it in half).

So you could cut Trump's signature out and still use it at a bank. Might not work at a business.

>>1500895
>So you could cut Trump's signature out and still use it at a bank.
You could cut Trumps signature out of a series of bills, make a collage to sell to retarded MAGAs for the cost of currency you mutilated, and replace the bils for free and start again

>>1500891
>Fox and Friends

You do not belong here.

>>1500862
Candidate that runs on scorched earth for these fascist dogs gets my vote.

>>1500869
Donald has done so much reputational damage to the republican name that no moderate or independent will vote republican for a generation.

>>1500909
They tried to do a 'Do y'all want to see Trump impeached?' at CPAC and got cheers from the friendliest audience they'll get.
Republicunts know they're completely fucked
https://x.com/AndrewFeinberg/status/2037542794139521391

>>1500908
Yeah. I'll take a moderate who is going to hold them to account over a progressive who just wants to move on and fix our economy. While the odds of a comfortable future aren't great to begin with, the republic definitely won't survive if this blatant corruption and vice becomes normalized. There's already laws on the book for a lot of this shit. It's why I was so pissed off with Obama. His AG, Holder, outright stated that yeah, the banks did do criminal shit that fucked over 90% of Americans, but they're "too big to jail," or how Obama stopped investigations into human rights violations (aka torture) under the Bush admin because "nothing will be gained by spending our time and energy laying blame for the past." Man still has a sterling record in the eye of many liberals because of his erudite silver tongue.

>>1500909
They said that after Bush, but here we are. The news and social media are mostly owned by oligarchs. Until you take care of the Epsteinite problem, this shit will repeat on and on and on.

>>1500912
>Yeah. I'll take a moderate who is going to hold them to account over a progressive who just wants to move on and fix our economy.
weird how you flipped those two

>>1500913
It's a hypothetical. The only center left politician I can think of who would investigate Trump officials if elected to presidency would be Pritzker.

>>1500834
Technically yes. But when you're finding legal loopholes too get around laws that exist to prevent authoritarianism, that says a lot.

>>1500914
Pritzker is a genuine liberal. I may not like liberals, but at least we can agree that democracy is worth its flaws. Guys like Schumer and Newsom are just souless, feckless corpocratic lickspittles. They hold the American populace in barely masked contempt. Yeah, Americans are largely cattle, but your Epstenite masters created the media and educational environment where this cult of stupidity could bloom. If they could, they'd be passing all sorts of oppressive nanny state laws like Keir Starmer and Labor are doing in the UK. It'd be fascism with a liberal, rainbow capitalism aesthetic.

>>1500917
>Guys like Schumer and Newsom are just souless, feckless corpocratic lickspittles
Unfortunately soulless corporate lickspittles pretending to support the average American are still preferable to soulless corporate lickspittles that are fine with condemming Americans to death, so we're still at 'vote blue no matter who'

>>1500891
Losing 20% of his base is huge. Stop watching Fox and Friends it’s making you retarded

>>1500912
Obama is a pos for pretending to drink the Flint water, he wasn’t good but he is the best president in the last quarter century. Little Bush also bailed out Freddy and Fanny because they were too big to fail.

>>1500918
Vote blue so long as they aren’t taking AIPAC money, vote red if Trump called them a traitor

>>1500922
>vote red if Trump called them a traitor
Nah, they'll still suck republican dick
You can't trust sheep

>>1500869
>The base will just have to suck it up
The base has been sitting out which is why democrats lose. Pandering to the right wing never works.

Cuckocrats can't even get on money
I can't wait to collect my trump coins and bills

>>1500877
Future Democratic governments must continue to print these bills but to the signature add Donald j Trump The criminal.

>>1500921
Stupid ignorant people deserve the government that they get.
Instead of voting third party, they thought Trump was a "natural-born world-shaker"

>>1500939
Pardoned. Game over

>>1500926
I happen to be quite fond of the Republican Party and am not a fan of the way it’s been going since Reagan. My grandmother said once they vote in an actor as president they could vote in anybody

>>1500943
I beg your pardon but he tore down our rose garden. Along with the sunshine, there's got to be a little rain sometime

>>1500945
General Eisenhower was the greatest POTUS ever.
This was because he was on the cusp of compassionate capitalism, before it inevitably ate itself

>>1500862
There is only one party - AIPAC

>>1500896
you could cut it out or black it out with marker. As long as the series number appears on it, it is legit.

>>1500911
I think they were just confused about what impeachment meant. Seals trained to clap, basically.

Without appealing to the "orange man bad" logical fallacy, explain to me what exactly is wrong with this.

>>1500966
without admitting you're an esl shill, explain to us why you can't read the constitution

>>1500968
Oh leftists pretend to care about the constitution now? Despite trying to destroy free speech and the 2nd amendment?

>>1500971
shill anon, i have to cook dinner right now, you'll have to lap up your attention from someone else

>>1500966
Trump is unpopular and unworthy of such an honor. It’s not a fallacy when it’s true, orange and a man and bad

>>1500966
Just more "breaking of longstanding norms" for ego stroking and PR purposes. It symbolizes how Trump "owns" the US, or "is" the US. It's not really revelatory or effect my life that much. Trump will be Trump. The knock on effects from the Iran war is more pressing.

>>1500976
There are no knock on effects from the Iran operation except for temporarily increased gas prices but they will stabilize for America as Trump's Venezuela deal comes online.

Trump is not the US and does not own the US. No conservative believes that. But Trump has also done more to fix the dollar than any other President in history and I see nothing wrong with reminding people of that everytime they handle their cash.

>>1500976
You mean like how Biden ran the US as a personal bussiness for his son's gains or turned the white house into a whore horse?

> It symbolizes how Trump "owns" the US, or "is" the US.
Biden tried to crown Hunter as his successor. He saw Americans like a king sees pheasants.

>>1500977
That might help, but I don't think oil prices are going to be going back under 100 a barrel anytime soon. The bigger concern are fertilizers. We're predicted to have a pretty rough growing season as is, and a huge portion of the fertilizer market being closed off is going to lead to price hikes and shortages on food. And crops are time-sensitive. Like we needed that fertilizer yesterday for harvesting in fall. If Trump had started operations in the Summer, probably would be okay in this department, at least for another year or so.

>>1500979
>Biden tried to crown Hunter as his successor
when the fuck did this happen lmao. I don't remember Hunter Biden running for DNC primary.

>>1500981
That's fake news, blown out of proportion by the media to make trumps operation look anything but successful. There is no fertilizer shortage in America.

>>1500982
You really are retarded, aren't you? Just go back to sleep. Close your eyes and stop noticing things. Keep following your programming.

>Daily reminder The Biden Family, and Victoria Nuland looted Ukraine for 26 billion dollars and Zelensky covered it up

>>1500977
There is currently no Venezuela deal

>>1500985
This is fake news

>>1500986
I looked it up and there’s nothing. If you found something let me know

>>1500977
>But Trump has also done more to fix the dollar than any other President in history
The dollar is currently in the worst position it has been in since the fucking great depression, what are you on?

>>1500990
That's fake news and completely mischaracterizes the effects of Trump's actions. The dollar is weak for now, yes, but all the data suggests that our President has set us up for an economic turn around not seen since the late 30s/early 40s

>>1500992
The smell of your own farts is not admissible data

Everything he does is ragebait. He's an actual demon.

>>1500992
>The dollar is weak for now, yes, but all the data suggests that our President has set us up for an economic turn around not seen since the late 30s/early 40s
>No no it'll totally go back up
>Eventually
>It's completely normal to have a massive economic downturn that just means there has to be an upturn afterwards right?
Yeah newsflash but economies don't work on seesaw rules.

When Nixon was PotUS, fake 3 dollar bills with his image and signature were making the rounds. You can still find some of them at collectibles markets.

>>1500997
Trump literally campaign in 2016 on the fact that the system is rigged and he made money from the 2007-2008 recession. That was a big point in the debates.

>>1501004
>Trump literally campaign in 2016 on the fact that the system is rigged and he made money from the 2007-2008 recession. That was a big point in the debates.
The 2008 recession didn't CAUSE the subsequent bounce back you retard.

>>1501000
Same with Clinton

Trump should make a $3 note with his face on it

>>1500832
Debating if I should donate every Trump bill I get to charity or his opponents, or to just fucking burn it.

>>1500984
>>1500986

Republican mindset on display. Everything is fake news, nothing is real unless they say it's real.

>im doing this for your own good bro
>trust me this is me being a genius I promise bro you didnt elect a con artist bro
>stop saying im using my position as president to manipulate the market for personal gain bro only like, liberals do that or something
Its very conveinent that all this huge financial success is only due to happen after he's gone and that we only have to deal with a shitty economy while he's around. For those of you reading this that are completely retarded, its so that when the economy finally tanks he and his cronies can just finger point at whoever is president after Trump.

>>1501083
Please burn every Trump bill. It will help reduce inflation by deleting money.

>>1501129
lol burning FIAT deletes money?
Most money doesn't even exist.

>>1501106
I still remember how bad the last guy was and I feel like he was the actual fuckup and we're still recovering from his mistakes.

>>1501338
What the heck are you talking about?

Brilliant. Democrats who hate Trump more than anything will burn their money in protest.

>>1501350
>only Democrats hate Trump
What causes Trump supporters to think this?

>>1501363
The results of the 2020 election.

>>1501338
You feel like, huh? That's a pretty good sign you're the fuck up. You don't actually know the difference, do you?

>>1501365
Trump lost.
