New Proposal by Republican Lawmaker Aims to Create $250 Bill Featuring President Trump
Gateway Pundit ^ | February 26, 2025 | Anthony Scott

Representative Joe Wilson (R-SC) has announced that he’s drafting legislation to create a $250 bill featuring President Trump.

Rep. Wilson wrote in a post on X, “Grateful to announce that I am drafting legislation to direct the Bureau of Engraving and Printing to design a $250 bill featuring Donald J. Trump. Biden-flation has destroyed the economy, forcing American families to carry more cash.”

Wilson added, “Most valuable bill for most valuable President!”

A policy advisor for Rep. Wilson shared the amount of $250 was chosen to commemorate the United State’s 250th anniversary in 2026.

Just put Trump on the $50 as it’s probably only worth $47 nowadays ...

I think that would work. I just know portraits of living Presidents are not allowed on stamps or legal tender currency.

They need to make a nice round number, like $256.

stupid idea - a GOP rep just trying to insure DJT support the next time her runs. Congress has tons of much more serious things to attend to. Hope the speaker tables the motion.

I like the design and would just change 45th to 47th.

I don’t like the idea of a $250 bill. Just make it a $500 bill, with Trump’s face. Maybe a $1000 bill with Elon Musk?

The obsolete $500 bill had President William McKinley on it. The last obsolete $1000 bill had President Grover Cleveland. $5000 was James Madison; $10,000 Andrew Jackson. There was a $100,000 bill for inter-bank use featuring Woodrow Wilson (gack).

Sounds like an expensive waste of taxpayer dollars.
Eliminating the penny, good idea. Saves taxpayer dollars.
