Donald Trump has pushed for a dramatic change to one of America’s oldest financial traditions, the US dollar. For the first time in history, a sitting US president’s name is set to appear on official American currency, replacing a long-standing practice that dates back to 1861. The White House has backed the decision, with Treasury officials, including Scott Bessent, defending it as a symbolic step ahead of the United States’ 250th anniversary. Supporters within the MAGA camp are calling it a bold assertion of leadership and national identity, a mark of economic strength and political dominance. But critics aren’t holding back. Across social media and political circles, the move is being labelled as unprecedented, with accusations of self-promotion and concerns over breaking institutional norms. WATCH
