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.

[BoricuaKing]

I respect what she did but I don't believe what she did deems her being the face of currency. PC bullshit at its finest

[dtf]

How about they make a $15 or $19 bill ?

[Disco_Volante]

Reminds me of Google's Veteran's Day logo.

I think over 85% of men killed in ww2 and 'nam were young white males.

   

They're erasing any history or sense of identity with whites. Little by little.

I'm not a history buff, but I don't think USA became a super power with a superior civilization due to black females. I'm sure those 'minority' women didn't valiantly lead in combat. Or invent a better bomb, etc..

[BoricuaKing]

They love over representing blacks for some reason

[Thrill Jackson]

When I think of money, I think of presidents. Putting Tubman on the $20 bill seems forced. I don't see the logic behind this, but this is America so I guess thats too much too ask.

It's always SJWs and limousine liberals who make the most far out racist connections and then accuse others of making it first when noone outside of their own twisted minds are the one making those associations.

I said before and i'll say it now liberals are some of the most actual racist people on earth. They categorize people and treat people with kid gloves because they believe they are literally inferior.

When some people think of money they think of queens, buildings, animals, etc. Mostly they think of buying stuff with it.

Pretty ironic that Andrew is on the $20 when the dude was a hater of all things banker. Wonder if he'd even want to be on the currency nowadays knowing they only come into existence via the "federal" reserve?

Yeah, I've very surprised he's on the bill in the first place. He is basically everything that modern America is not:

• Born in poverty and overcame it. Didn't complain or march on Wall Street and demand equality; he was a business man and failed many times, but found a way to succeed.
• Played a pivotal role in the War of 1812 (have some fun by asking Americans what this was - most have no idea that this war was ever fought or what it even was).
• Overthrew the central bank and proved that central banking wasn't necessary.
• Survived numerous assassination attempts, mostly from people (ie: bankers) who were threatened by his democratic approach to life in America.
• The only U.S. President to ever pay off the national debt. That's right, paid off all our debt. We had $0 in debt. No President has even come close.
• Was a business man, attorney, fighter. The man was all things masculine.
• Absolutely HATED by the left, which is why they love to talk about a person's flaws in general because we all know they've never done something wrong and history will be kind to them.
  

Of course, if you read revisionists (and most online sources are), you won't see very much of that list, or they'll try to spin it as negative. This is why if you ask most Americans who Andrew Jackson was, they'll say, "He's that anti-Indian guy" because that's all they've been taught (if they know at all).

Funny thing is he WASN'T anti indian, the only reason he enacted the trail of tears (which wasnt even carried out by him but the next president) Was because the militias were threatening to genocide ALL native americans(since they were always raiding their towns etc. . for good reason but still) and THEN fight the government if they got in the way, causing a civil war AND a genocide. Jackson enacted the trail of tears as a compromise that stopped a huge genocide from occurring AND keeping the U.S. together, that AND he fought the banks every step of the way. The dude should be a hero not a pariah, but whatever, sjws dont read history anyway, and the u.s. school system is in shambles, so of course people wouldnt know about that.

I do find it ironic though that Jackson, the object of hate for so many sjws advocated keeping the banks in check which would have gotten all these sjws decent jobs and an economy to have kids in. . .but other after him failed and now these sjws are getting Fucked by the banksters and are seemingly oblivious.

Maybe I should be a banker, maybe I could make millions ripping off un-eduacatable sjws

[puckerman]

Yes, as bad as the Trail of Tears was, the result might very well have been worse if the Native Americans had stayed where they were. The white people were ready to slaughter all of them, and their descendants would later form the lynch mobs of the KKK. Jackson choose the least evil of all the options that were available.

Interestingly enough, Sam Houston also supported the removal, even though he was very sympathetic to the Natives.

Jackson also took in an orphan Native American boy as his own.

Jackson's Presidency helped bring about what was easily the greatest period of economic growth the country has ever seen. The era of "Jacksonian political economy" basically lasted until the Civil War. And the country has been going downhill gradually ever since.

[Sam Malone]

They should put Prince on the $20 bill and call it $19.99... "The Bill Formerly Known As A $20."

[Alpha_Romeo]

Now that Trump is president, what's the likelihood that he will put a halt to this nonsense?

Edit: The answer is already there (had to scroll up a few posts). Awesome.
