  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Naw, some Americans can't correctly identify Canada or Mexico on a map. Switching currencies doesn't involve moving.
If anyone wants to have fun, when you pay for a purchase, pause and ask the the clerk if they take Hawaiian currency.

IANAL, but I think as long as there is no fraudulent intent, or intent to destroy or render the bill/coin unusable (AI informs me), it's okay.
A curious thing there: You can mark a coin if you have no intent to pass it off as currency, but you can't alter a bill so it can't be recirculated, or for fraudulent purposes, or for advertisement. If someone took UV ink and wrote "Made you look" on a bill, it might be legal, but I wouldn't want to risk it.

Oh, and this might turn out to be important: I don't think you can cover up serial numbers or signatures. So if someone, as an act of protest, marks out Trump's signature, that would likely be against existing law.

President Donald Trump is adding his name to U.S. dollar bills, the first time a sitting president’s signature will go on paper currency, the Treasury Department announced Thursday.

Trump’s signature will go on the bills in honor of the country’s 250th anniversary, the Treasury said. Historically, paper currency carries the signatures of the treasury secretary and the treasurer.

Treasury Announces President Donald J. Trump’s Signature to Appear on Future U.S. Paper Currency

Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent: “There is no more powerful way to recognize the historic achievements of our great country and President Donald J. Trump than U.S dollar bills bearing his name"

I can't wait to use a 2,024 dollar bill to fill up my gas tank!

I was hoping this was a joke.
Trump may be considered a joke, but his desire to have his name on everything isn’t. Trump appears to believe his immortality is based on the number of times his name appears on something.

Most politicians have a narcissist streak, beginning with the conceit that anyone would want to elect them.
Confidence is not narcissism and should certainly not be confused. Confidence is a GOOD thing to have...narcissism is not.

I know where the Gulf of Mexico used to be.
It's still there. I don't believe the nonsense of our government. Since Trump went back into office. As for Trump on the $100 bill . I think Mega will love. Until they wake.

Trump posts new image of $100 bill with his signature

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in March that the administration planned to feature Trump’s signature on US currency in honor of the 250th anniversary of the United States. CNN has reached out to Treasury inquiring whether the $100 bills with Trump’s signature are currently being printed.

The image shows the president’s signature above Bessent’s. Previously, the $100 bill featured the signatures of the Treasury secretary and the treasurer of the United States, but not the sitting president.

I would rather Trump fill his time with meaningless gestures to his own vanity than mucking with the economy or bombing other countries.
Agreed. Some of the meaningless gestures such as renaming the Kennedy Center, can be relatively easily rectified, but others, such as the demolition of the East Wing of the White House, are much more challenging (and expensive). He should be held financially accountable for all of his misdeeds, including paying the war reparations to Iran that he promised them for his war with them.

Nah, he shouldn’t be on the hook for anything he might do, (if only because he could make a claim that he’s the “landlord” of the east wing complex).

I am not in the least concerned about the stuff he might do, but simply the stuff he has done. As a taxpayer I resent being financially ripped off for his nastiness.
