US treasurer says officials looking at drafts for country’s 250th anniversary featuring president with raised fist
To commemorate the 250th anniversary of the US’s independence, the treasury department is mulling production of a $1 coin displaying Donald Trump with a clenched first under an American flag and the words “fight, fight, fight”.
The words overtly reference what Trump said immediately after narrowly surviving an assassination attempt four months before he won a second presidency.

Commemorating his call to commit treason on Jan 6. Wonderful.

What better way to celebrate the 250th anniversary of ditching the old dictator than by celebrating the new one.

Yeah at this point with how weird everything was and how they were purposefully lining up media to take photos, I'm on the side of it being a wrestling-inspired "ketchup packet" move.

Yeah super weird the way that a dude on a stage with a ton of photographers around him has a good photo taken of him. You never see badass photos taken at an nfl game or anything. This is real evidence of a conspiracy.

An NFL game doesn't usually have an active sniper situation happening where the person they're taking a photo of by all means shouldn't be standing up again so the sniper can get another shot off. Nor are they usually shuffled into place by the staff of the person who was shot at for a great photo opportunity.
But sure, let's compare it to something entirely different and not life threatening, that makes sense.

Sure whatever you think.

I'm game. Curious how one would explain the other people shot and killed or injured? That there was a real sniper intentionally missing?

Or the NYT photographing what seems to be the bullet in mid-air? If a real sniper missing intentionally, would have been an incredible shot to safely miss at that proximity.

I think it was all blood from the victim, that’s why there was no scar after the fact. Old people don’t heal that fast, and the big bandaid at the convention was just for show.

He is a pedophile, a dictator, a rapist, and a fraud.
These coins will be another shit stain on America.

This is what happens when we fail to educate Americans. School system fell too far behind while the wealthy kept evading taxes

It will be plated in fake gold that flakes off in 6 months and turns your fingers green if you hold it too long.

Fuck tar and feathering, press this shit out of tin and throw them at republicans. Make sure to throw it like a skipping stone.

It sure looked like prearranged acting when trumps ear bled and he stood up and yelled fight (3 times...just like Hitler).
