A great idea. Then, when you have to spend four donalds for a carton of eggs you'll remember why voting for con-men is a bad idea.
Shhh… do you even know how easy that will be to forge? ;) ;)
$4? Shit it was $6 at the local Aldi yesterday.
Four donalds, aka four hundred dollars ($400)
How much are goofies worth?
He just told you. $400
Oooh my brain just "auto corrected" it to "dollars" when I was reading it.
Just so everyone's aware, it's super duper illegal to deface currency.
So like, it would be against the law to use a sharpie to add a Hitler mustache to Trump's face on said dollar bill; or add an arm extended in a Nazi salute; or add swastikas over 'god' where it says "In god we trust"; to then bring it to a bank and report that you received defaced currency and would like to exchange it for new bills, only to do it all again.
So... y'know, probably don't do those things.
It's more a legally gray area in the US that as far as I can find from a quick search has never been settled in court. It likely isn't worth the time for police to go after either even if it was more explicitly illegal.
That might change if there's a sudden surge in people drawing on $100 bills, but who uses $100s that often anyway? Most ATMs I used only dispense $20s. It often isn't worth the trip to the bank, and the US is unfortunately mostly cashless now.
But to be clear: fuck this fascist bullshit and resist in whatever ways you can
There's an argument we shouldn't even be issuing $100 bills in the first place. Counterfeiters have to spend money to copy money. A $1 or $5 bill isn't worth the cost. A $50 is getting there, but if you put extra anti-counterfeiting measures around it, then it's pushed out of reach again.
Once you reach a $100 bill, though, it's hard to have enough anti-counterfeiting measures while also being cheap enough to produce by the actual US Mint. Drop it entirely, and the problem goes away.
It's also illegal for a living person to be featured in our currency.

18th consecutive golden retriever dunk
At this rate he might do it himself.
It's not illegal as long as you're not trying to get it out of circulation, advertise, or pass off one denomination as another. So deface away.

President Trump could be enjoying his golden years golfing and spending time with his family," Gill told Fox News Digital. "Instead, he took a bullet for this country and is now working overtime...
Didn't the bullet go through his ear and kill a firefighter?
Bullet never touched him. The blood was splatter. He wore a bandage for 2 days for show. When it came off there was not a scratch.
I work at a hospital and have worked with hundreds of patients around his age. When you're that old, your skin is like paper thin and tears extremely easy. I've slid patients from one bed to another and tore skin. Donald Trump was tackled by secret service. Maybe it was his blood but I highly doubt he took a bullet or any shrapnel from glass or anything else.
Conspiracy theories don't help. Especially since there was a photo with the bullet mid flight.
Man, these bootlickers are so pathetic. The lengths they go to to kiss his ass would be cringe even if it was towards an actual great person. The fact that it's directed at this hateful, disgusting man is the saddest thing...
Just in case people didn't know they were heading into a personality cult dictatorship already.
Doesn't DJT has to die soon for that?
What a massive waste of taxpayer money.
What a massive defacement of taxpayer money.
So....America....you guys really are about a step-and-a-half away from this?
Get your shit together. Christ.
Already nose diving face first. Steps are gone.
There's already proposals to put his face on Mt Rushmore, so yes.
lol .... by the time they do pass regulations and laws to do all this .... 1 Trump will be worth nothing
It will be like the German Reichsmark and they'll be printing out so much of it, that these paper bills will be more valuable as a fuel source to cook your food than in actually purchasing anything of value.
“1 Trump will be worth nothing” vs the immense value one Trump has now. lol.
Will that lower grocery prices?
I saw the onion logo and thought "heh, that's funny". Then I re-read the name of the community...
In the tradition of USA currency being only for dead presidents - I will gladly allow Trump's face on any bill if he's the one to pull the trigger
That's actually a far point
Not putting him on the $100,000 bill is slap in the face.
new toilet paper just dropped
Surely this will be the policy to finally bring egg prices down
This will bring down the price of eggs. Bigly.
Just fucking pathetic.
Well if they do that, I'll draw at least 2 dicks pointed towards his mouth on each one that I handle
Why not have two genocidal maniacs on our currency at this point.
Spoiler
Andrew Jackson moment
He's getting rid of the pennies and nickles in favor of this
Most of these bills aren't really intended to pass... I hope
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.
What does harambe have to do with this?
It's a joke based on multiverse theory. The joke is that if someone hadn't killed Harambe (RIP in peace), we would be living a timeline of events that is different than this stupid, shitty one.
Oh look frivolous spending.
