I thought it was illegal to print money with a living person depicted

When have trivial things like “laws” or “morals” ever stopped this administration??

What a shitty coin. If you're going to violate a law at least do it for something with taste. Like:

  • an Obama quarter for illinois with a reaper drone
  • a Clinton coin with a dress
  • a Biden coin with a staircase
  • a bush coin with a shoe

Bush with french fries to remind people how you are supposed to react to an asshole who tries to change the name of something.

I would love a Bush / Shoe coin. Who would ever think we would come to view that as not even a top 10 weird moment of a president.

Apparently there's only 1 law that says that and the way it's worded applies only to paper money.

We've been relying on politeness and tradition to not do this. So yeah here we are

Well you see, we ain't priting cuz you can't print on metal! Gotcha liberal!

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 days ago

We can fix that.

I thought so too! Same with naming public places.

But this admin shows me over and over again that the USA truly is the country of boundless possibilities.
