BREAKING: THANK YOU! CNN's Kaitlan Collins confronts Treasury Secretary Bessent over Trump's insane attempt to slap his own leering mug on $250 bills.
His stuttering answer said it all...
"Politically, do you think it's a good idea, though, when people are struggling to afford gas and groceries?" Collins asked Secretary Scott Bessent during a press briefing.
Earlier today, The Washington Post reported that four current and former Treasury Department employees have revealed that Trump officials are pushing to have his face printed on $250 bills. They have repeatedly pestered the Bureau of Engraving and Printing to work up prototypes. It would be the first time that a living person has appeared on American currency in over 150 years. Under federal law, only deceased individuals may appear on our money.
This is the stuff that third world dictatorships are made of.
"Look, I think it has— I— I think that it's bifurcated," said Bessent. "Do you think we should have a 250th anniversary celebration?"
"Well, that's happening anyway," Collins bluntly replied. "But putting the President's face on $250 bill is a choice."
"But no, no, no, no. No. It— No, no, no, no. But Kaitlan, its not happening anyway," said Bessent. "It's happening because it's being funded by private citizens, by the federal government, by state governments, by municipal governments, to celebrate our country."
"And I— I don't think that there's anything untoward about having the President of the United States, the person who was President of the United States, on the 250th anniversary bill," added Bessent.
With that point, we beg to differ. The idea of putting a mass murdering, pedophiliac, demented, convicted felon, adjudicated rapist on our money is absolutely unacceptable. This is yet another desperate attempt by Trump to carve out a legacy for himself. He's aware of his own looming mortality and the fact that he will leave nothing behind but a weaker America, looted treasury, and enraged populace. He knows we despise him and so he's grasping for immortality on our money.
Please ❤️ and share if you staunchly oppose putting Trump on our money!
