Trump rewrites history! In a first since 1861, Dollar notes to bear sitting US President's signature
Donald Trump is set to become the first sitting US president to have his signature on US banknotes, the treasury department has announced. Trump's signature will appear alongside Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, an unprecedented move that the department said would mark America's 250th anniversary. "There is no more powerful way to recognize the historic achievements of our great country and President Donald J Trump than US dollar bills bearing his name," Bessent said. US banknotes have traditionally carried the signatures of treasury officials.
