"proposal"

Guys like always with GOP proposals, theyre just not realistic in any way.

I could list a hundred reasons from drug cartel soft power to petrodollar to NK USD forging (they're the fucking best at it, better than US mints)

Changing the Gulf of Mexico was also just a proposal before he aped it for an eo.

I've never wiped my ass with a hundred before but in this case I'm willing to try it.

Didnt another person submit for Trump to be on like a $250 bill?

Fuck it you know what put his face on every bill. Trump clearly saved the USA and should be considered its only founding father from now on. Replace all the symbolism and stuff on the back of bills with pictures of Mar a Lago and Bedminster. Maybe Trump Towers too.

God this is the worst timeline. Someone go back and save Harambe.

The next admin is going to have so much shit to clean up that it'll be like seeing your home after you rented it out to a massive drunken party.

“President Trump could be enjoying his golden years golfing and spending time with his family…”

You mean like… exactly what he’s doing now?
