God Trump is such a narcissist. I'm sure he wanted every dollar bill but $100 is the highest denomination.
They'll probably settle on creating a higher denomination. I mean, it's not like it would be hard to justify having a higher denomination. The US Treasury used to issue higher denomination bank notes., but the highest has been the $100 note since 1934. We've had quite a lot of cumulative inflation since then. Sure, cash is less important now than it was in the past. But if just by inflation, a $1000 note would be appropriate. So maybe as a compromise you issue $250 and $500 notes.
Or maybe he'll just mint a ten trillion dollar platinum coin with his mug on it. Then have the treasury deposit it in the president's personal bank account as "a tip for good public service."
The ego inflation would go like this:
"Sir, we want to put you on a new $500 bill. The EU has a €500 bill as well, so economic studies show viabil-"
"They already have a 500? No, I want a $1,000 bill, then. Put Elon on the $500."
"Sir, yes sir, thank you sir." boot slurping noises
$250 is a dumb denomination that only US would do.
1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 ,100 is followed by 200, 500, 1000.
JFC every measurement of everything in that country gets decided by someone who flunked in maths.
That’s scary.
This some alternate timeline bs, but also a great metaphor for what's going on in the US.
As a Brit, for whom the colloquial for pennies is "pence" like "ten pence" is 10p, I feel he's missing a trick not putting his fat leather apron of a face on the nickel or dime. Because then you could have "Trump pence". You could call it a Trumpence
Surely this will be the policy to finally bring egg prices down
It's getting harder and harder to distinguish NTO headlines from the rest. That's how stupid this motherfucker is. Every Trump headline could be posted here unironically.
I thought there already was a law stating living persons cannot be placed on currency. Am I not correct?
a what? that word....llllaaaaawwwww can't say I'm familiar with it,
must be some kind of old term that applied to presidents before the current godking....
Hmmm... Suddenly I'm on board with this idea
Why not have two genocidal maniacs on our currency at this point.
Spoiler
Andrew Jackson moment
Just fucking pathetic.
Most of these bills aren't really intended to pass... I hope
All about the trumps just doesn't slap like Benjamins. All about the trumps sounds like a nightmare of a reality show
Didnt another person submit for Trump to be on like a $250 bill?
Fuck it you know what put his face on every bill. Trump clearly saved the USA and should be considered its only founding father from now on. Replace all the symbolism and stuff on the back of bills with pictures of Mar a Lago and Bedminster. Maybe Trump Towers too.
God this is the worst timeline. Someone go back and save Harambe.
I've never wiped my ass with a hundred before but in this case I'm willing to try it.
Thank God I only use electronic money
