    Here’s a link to a news station not run by a fascist enabler

    https://www.wavy.com/news/politics/trump-250-bill-proposal-sparks-backlash/

    The reported push by Trump administration officials comes despite the 1866 Thayer Amendment, which makes it illegal to put the likeness of a living person on official U.S. currency, bonds or other financial notes. Additionally, current law limits U.S. currency to specific denominations and a $250 bill is not on that list.

      At least “we can’t take X off the $Y bill” is probably an argument effective on the stupids who want Trump on something. They’d probably only want FDR off the dime, and Trump would never want to be on something so small.
