"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.
Having one company change one field of text to add parentheses for some Trump delusional bs is a bit different than changing the US dollars in circulation.
I don't think you understand just how big of a difference it actually is.
Except that the Republicans (that want and are pushing this) control: A) The presidency B) The Senate C) The US House of Representatives
The Democrats (that would oppose this) are in a majority, and thus control, have.... None.
This "proposal" is much more likely than you may think.
Keep drinking your copium. I'm sure it'll help against reality.
Actually what I'm drinking is a nice Tempranillo-Syrah blend, and I really couldn't give a shit about what dollars look like.
Our money is superior.
Now that I use Euros, while they are nicer looking than the US bills, they aren't very nice compared to a lot of other countries.
