Announcement is the latest example of Trump literally stamping his name on US institutions.
United States President Donald Trump’s signature will soon appear on US currency under plans to mark the 250th anniversary of the country’s Independence Day on July 4.

The move announced by the US Department of the Treasury on Thursday marks a first for a sitting president.

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.

This is dumb for money to be wasted on, however, its also the type of thing The PP does to distract from his disastrous policy when the shit hits the fan. Lets focus on the people we are killing by having started and continuing the Iraq war. The one we won, yet keep trying to negotiate and end the fighting.
