For reference, a hockey puck and a baseball are 3 inches in diameter.
In the Dark Knight, Harvey Dent flipped a double headed 'Liberty Dollar". If, somehow the double assed Trump coin gets made it should be referred to as a ‘Subjugation Dollar’.
The ‘coin’ should be made in the shape and size of a hocky puck.
Made out of coal.
I’m pretty sure Don Rickles would have called him a hockey puck, so it is fitting.
The size is good, but I think it should be a Mickey D’s hamberder patty sealed in lucite. With his picture stamped on it. Captures his essence.
Created by ChatGPT with my instructions. Took several tries to get it perfect.
I could almost get behind a coin with an engraving of that time that Trump got attacked by an eagle. That eagle knew what was up.
Did his hair flip up to show his bald spot? I won’t approve a coin that doesn’t include that.
He should be depicted as mooning the world. Because that’s exactly what he’s really doing.
If we gotta show him bent over a desk it should be a rear view.
Putin would be in the way.
Nope. Putin would be on the other side of trump. Facing us in the audience. Idjit trump is totally Putin’s adoring stooge.
Agree.
Also agree.
I am reminded reading years ago about some numpty who wrote the Postmaster General asking to be put on a postage stamp. The reply mentioned the policy of not putting living persons on stamps and concluded, “therefore I can only suggest that you take the first step and drop dead.”
It would take it being a memorial coin for me to get enthusiastic about it.
I’m thinking that any Trump coin, legal tender or not, will be so popular among the MAGA set, that the US Mint will produce plenty to meet demand; and then produce plenty more to meet continuing demand (*). And the MAGAts will hoard them, or circulate them among themselves. There will be so many minted, in spite of no demand for them outside of the MAGA world, that they will become about as valuable as a Franklin Mint collector plate.
Of course, Trump could declare that it would be a legal tender $1 coin, but then, he’d have to deal with all the Americans (including MAGAts) who have already rejected the idea of a dollar coin how many times now? And if Trump demands that the Bureau of Engraving and Printing stop printing paper dollars to force the use of the Trump dollar, what would Americans say to that?
(*) On a predominantly right-wing board that I occasionally look at, one poster gleefully proclaimed that he’d buy a few rolls, because they’d make great stocking stuffers for the grandkids next Christmas. And the Christmas after that. And so on, and so on.
The critical thing about any trump coins that ever do get minted is that all the metal that goes into them will be sourced from a special trump-owned company. That charges the taxpayers $100 oz for iron, $200 for copper or zinc, and $20,000 oz for silver. That outfit sells the best precious metal anyone has ever seen. The best metal. The total number of coins in the initial order will be truly yuge; the biggest batch of coins ever made.
Does Trump ever speak in anything other than superlatives?
Really, even before the game gets started, you might as regard “Nobody’s ever seen” as a free space on your Bingo card.
I’m waiting for Trump to declare that it’s no longer the Strait of Hormuz, but the Strait of Trump.
“Who is this guy “Hormuz”, anyway? Why does he deserve to be honored? How many wars did he stop?”
That actually seems like an awesome idea. If he made the change and enforced it upon his administration, there’s a very good chance that Google Maps would play along, which would make their bootlicking on the Gulf of Mexico clearer to see for what it is.
Didn’t he invent canned chili?
His signature is going to start appearing on paper bills.
I wish this ape would just die already.
He is trying to pretend that he is doing all these things in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the country. Like he has anything to do with it. He is just using that as a cover for things he wants to do anyway and MAGA will think it’s so cool, not dictator-like at all. It’s pretty fucked up to be celebrating the worst person to ever happen to this country in 250 years. But here we are.
