'Fight, fight, fight!' U.S. treasurer reveals Trump dollar that could be part of nation's 250th anniversary - GLA NEWS

Social media user: ‘I cannot wait to pay liberals with these…’

In yet another finger in the eye of liberals, U.S. Treasurer Brandon Beach has suggested creating a $1 coin carrying the image of President Donald Trump to celebrate next year’s 250th anniversary of the nation.

No fake news here. These first drafts honoring America’s 250th Birthday and @POTUS are real.

Looking forward to sharing more soon, once the obstructionist shutdown of the United States government is over. https://t.co/c6HChM6ijG

The “first drafts” were released online, and more details are to be coming soon.

Social media immediately turned sarcastic, with one commenter promising, “I cannot wait to pay liberals with these.”

Reports described one side shows a profile of Trump, and the reverse shows him raising a fist in front of an American flag, with the words “fight, fight, fight” circling.

Normally, presidents only are memorialized on U.S. coinage after their deaths.

From 2007 and 2016, the U.S. mint produced four different coins each year honoring deceased presidents, and then in 2020 it added a coin honoring the late George H.W. Bush.

However, Congress already has authorized the Mint to issue new $1 coins “with designs emblematic of the United States semiquincentennial.”

That means, if the Trump coins become reality, he would be the first living president so honored.

Details already released did not reveal whether such coins would be put generally into circulation, where dollar coins have not fared well, or be largely for collectors.

The Treasury statement explained, “Despite the radical left’s forced shutdown of our government, the facts are clear: Under the historic leadership of President Donald J. Trump, our nation is entering its 250th anniversary stronger, more prosperous, and better than ever before. While a final $1 dollar coin design has not yet been selected to commemorate the United States’ semiquincentennial, this first draft reflects well the enduring spirit of our country and democracy, even in the face of immense obstacles.”
