TRUMP weighs in, ready to save the day:

Quote:

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump said Thursday that abolitionist Harriet Tubman is "fantastic" but she shouldn't replace former President Andrew Jackson on the front of the $20 bill.

He cited "pure political correctness" for the Treasury Department's decision to feature the African-American abolitionist — who was born into slavery and led the Underground Railroad — instead of the nation's seventh president, a slave owner.

Speaking on NBC's "Today" show, Trump said Tubman's likeness should go on a different denomination.

"Well Andrew Jackson had a great history and I think it's very rough when you take somebody off the bill," Trump said. "Andrew Jackson had a history of tremendous success for the country."

He suggested that "maybe we do the $2 bill" or something else for Tubman.

A black woman on the View seriously objected to the Tubman $2 bill due to rap lyrics that rap about cheap two dollah hoes that make you holla...

She tried to do some BLM mental gymnastics but hard to call Rap Music racist.
