A Republican lawmaker is introducing legislation to immortalize President Donald Trump on $100 bills.

Congressman Brandon Gill, who represents Texas' 26th Congressional District, said that he plans to introduce a bill to feature Trump's likeness on the $100 note once his current term concludes.

"President Trump could be enjoying his golden years golfing and spending time with his family," Gill told Fox News Digital. "Instead, he took a bullet for this country and is now working overtime to secure our border, fix our uneven trade relationship with the rest of the world, make America energy independent again, and put America first by ending useless foreign aid."

Why It Matters

As millions of Americans look to the government to lower food and gas prices, some lawmakers are instead pushing symbolic gestures like redesigning U.S. currency. The proposal to place Trump on the $100 bill reflects ongoing efforts to cement his legacy but it is unlikely to gain bipartisan support.

What To Know

Gill argued that replacing Benjamin Franklin with Trump on the $100 bill "is a small way to honor all he will accomplish these next four years."

His legislation follows a similar effort last week by Representative Joe Wilson, a South Carolina Republican, who proposed placing Trump's face on a new $250 note. That bill has the support of three other House conservatives.

The last time a U.S. banknote design changed in this way was in 1929, when Andrew Jackson replaced Grover Cleveland on the $20 bill.

Changing U.S. law would be necessary to allow living people to appear on currency.

Franklin was a Founding Father, inventor, scientist, diplomat and writer. He helped draft the Declaration of Independence and secured French support during the American Revolution. Known for his kite experiment, he proved lightning was electricity and invented the lightning rod, bifocals and Franklin stove. He also founded the first public library and the University of Pennsylvania. Though he appears on the $100 bill, he was never a president.

Probably can flip that dollar for some more coin, it’s still fukk Trump. I’ve been looking into the penny craze since they might phase it out. The real copper coins might be worthy if they’re rare.
