    While no #law prohibits printing bills with Trump’s signature, #US #currency experts say that producing a $250 note featuring the president‘s image would run afoul of current laws. One states only a “deceased individual” may be depicted on US currency. Another specifies which denominations the bureau may produce.

    Larry R. Felix, a former director of the bureau, said “a $250 note is not statutorily authorized” without an act of #Congress.

      @Nonilex that picture? Setting aside the whole "dead presidents only" on currency thing, that's the picture they want to go with?

          @Nonilex since he will probably not wait to become a "deceased individual", I think I know what will happen!

          He will ask FIFA to edit a version of the monopoly game where banknotes have a portrait of him 🙃

            Starting last year, 2 political appointees at the #Treasury Dept— US Treasurer Brandon Beach & his snr adviser, Mike Brown — repeatedly urged staff at the agency’s Bureau of Engraving & Printing to prepare prototypes of the note, acc/to the employees, who said the move raised concerns because #federal #law currently allows only deceased people to appear on bills.

              @Nonilex There may be a queue of people willing to ensure this law is impossible to break.

                  How many graven images does it take before God starts to be annoyed?

                      @Nonilex I’m sure trumpy gets $50 kickback for every bill printed. Face rental cost.
