President Donald Trump is adding his name to U.S. dollar bills, the first time a sitting president's signature will go on paper currency, the Treasury Department announced Thursday.

Trump's signature will go on the bills in honor of the country's 250th anniversary, the Treasury said. Historically, paper currency carries the signatures of the treasury secretary and the treasurer.

"The President's mark on history as the architect of America's Golden Age economic revival is undeniable," Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in a statement. "Printing his signature on the American currency is not only appropriate, but also well deserved."

U.S. paper currency has featured the treasurer's along with the treasury secretary's or the register of the treasurer's signatures since it was first printed in 1861.

Polls show voters are unhappy with the economy, citing rising inflation and high cost of living. Oil prices have also risen since the start of the Iran war, causing some voters to express dismay.

Trump's signature on the dollar bills is not the only representation of him that Americans can expect to see on U.S. currency this year.

I plan to start stocking up on paper currency now, or go cashless.

I guess we'll have to look at going cashless.

May be good for the collectors of currency and coins, they seem to like every new issue.

I do not use cash much at all.  Although if in NYC, they seem to add 3-4% if you use a credit or debit card so cash may be practical.

I've never wanted to burn cash before, but I may need to rethink my position.

It is still worth the money so spend it.  Convert it to gold perhaps?

He really does have a messiah complex. And plenty of sycophants.

Two years time... he will rename the Dollar to the Trump. When he's destroyed the world and it's worth less than the currency of Zimbabwe.

I think he's gonna put his brand on as much as possible and then demand a royalty for it. Make millions. 🤬

Yeah the most accurate is still the British slang term for a fart.

Just sayin....
