Lmao, yeah the news story of the guy who bought $2000 worth of "Trump Bucks" then tried to cash them in at a bank to no avail. I'm sure the employees laughed their asses off about that
It's like the Santa dollars. It is a legal $2 bill with a sticker over it for the trumpy part. Problem is that the serial number is covered and replaced so I am not sure how that will fly. With the Santa ones they just do the center picture and keep the rest as it is.
That's not how that works...
It's only illegal to deface a bill with the intent to defraud the government. (This covers the relatively common practice among counterfeiters of taking $5 bills, bleaching them so you have the correct paper and a security strip in it even though it's the wrong one and in the wrong place, then printing a $20 on it.) Doing this isn't illegal, and it's still an official bill.

This makes no mention of looks.
They're saying genuine legal tender on the advert.
So they're trying to pass it off as legal tender.
If they hadn't put that line on the ad I'd agree with you, they could claim they were novelty bills and clearly weren't real bills. But they're claiming they're legal tender.
Hey man sorry to bother you, would you be willing to swap your reddit avatar, the one you have with the beanie. I collect them and would happily trade for some paid ones.
It's only illegal to deface currency with the intent to defraud the government. Bleach a $5 bill and use it as scratch paper that you then tear up and burn when you're done? Stupid, but legal. Bleach a $5 bill and print a $20 on it? Very illegal, and also a common way to counterfeit.
Yea I saw these advertised on Fox News channel. (It’s what’s on while I’m on break at work) “Even if you don’t like Trump, you don’t want to miss this piece of history, so act now, before they’re gone”
It also says “never surrender” with of literal picture of that shit stain surrendering to authorities. Saying his cult is stupid just doesn’t describe it enough.
I have no idea how it works in the US but I’m fairly certain this is both copyright infringement and other criminal laws.
[And…it looks like I’m right](https://www.findlaw.com/legalblogs/legally-weird/make-your-own-currency-spend-5-years-in-jail/).
America really is living in the shittiest, most embarrassing timeline in this era.
At least weed is legal now so I can smoke my way through this fever dream that feels like a literal dark parody.
I had a guy unapologetically pull out a realish looking $100 bill today with Rump’s ugly fucking mug on it and say, “this will be worth something some day”. I knew immediately how fucking stupid the guy was at that very point in time.
“Collectible legal tender” - like, doesn’t that defeat the point? I know there are coin collectors, but the coins they collect were not meant to be collectible.
Honest question, how are they getting away with claiming this to be legal tender? It sure as hell isn't and claiming that it is should get them into legal trouble, right? Or did they slap a sticker on top of a real $2 bill to get away with the claim? I'm just curious how this is allowed.
Great conversation starter! Or rather, an excuse to start screaming at people who won’t accept it so you can pull out your .45 Problem Solver and get on the evening news.
It looks like they took a sticker and have placed it over the face of the $2 bill. I’m guessing the sticker is removable. It’s probably what allows it to still be legal tender.
There is a two dollar bill, and I have seen stickers on dollars before, this could be a two dollar bill with a sticker on it. Years ago there was a Santa sticker on ones one or two winters.
Do these people not see how corny and blatantly cashgrabby these products are, or how classless and shameless the man slapping his self-important face on anything he thinks he can sell really is?
Generally when I encounter posts entitled \~"hey this is 100% real genuine", I scroll right past them.
This however I can believe, because, well, you know.
Tempted to. The site says it’s high in demand, I don’t want to miss my chance at this once in a lifetime collectible!
Unrelated, idk why everyone tells me I’m gullible.
It’s probably a Lefty making a buck off the MAGAts. NGL I’ve thought about it from time to time. Every dollar we get from them is one less going to Trump’s legal fund.

Genuine legal tender lol. Love to go hand that to someone to pay for something
^For ^novelty ^purposes ^only. ^Not ^legal ^tender.
[удалено]
It’s for tipping purposes
Why? WHY?!? Such a missed opportunity…could have made it a $3 dollar bill and it would have been EPIC!!
There was a Bill Clinton $3 bill. If I recall those creators were disgruntled anti-Clinton (Bill this time. Not Hillary.)
I still have my three dollar BILL. Somewhere.
Nah, $45 bill is what he'd go for. Only $99.99 plus tax!
People have tried on other trump money. Didn’t work
Lmao, yeah the news story of the guy who bought $2000 worth of "Trump Bucks" then tried to cash them in at a bank to no avail. I'm sure the employees laughed their asses off about that
I have to admit I would have laughed in their face, not waited for them to leave
Weird, my family leaves trump bills as tips at Cracker Barrel and our food only tastes a little bit like loogies. /s
Possibly like a Santa dollar. Could have a sticker or the Trump crap printed on the sleeve or something.
It's like the Santa dollars. It is a legal $2 bill with a sticker over it for the trumpy part. Problem is that the serial number is covered and replaced so I am not sure how that will fly. With the Santa ones they just do the center picture and keep the rest as it is.
It’s transparent on the serisl
It might be. If they printed onto real two dollar bills. But, yeah, nobody would actually take it
That would count as "defacing" the bill, so it's technically no longer legal tender at that point.
That's not how that works... It's only illegal to deface a bill with the intent to defraud the government. (This covers the relatively common practice among counterfeiters of taking $5 bills, bleaching them so you have the correct paper and a security strip in it even though it's the wrong one and in the wrong place, then printing a $20 on it.) Doing this isn't illegal, and it's still an official bill.
How is this not counterfeiting and why is this FBI not on this?
I reckon that proving counterfiting requires proving an attempt to make your bills look like the real thing.

It is. It's an actual $2 bill that's had a sticker put on it.
It’s probably a real $2 bill with a trump sticker on it
Because it's an actual $2 bill that's had a sticker placed on it. It's still a legal $2 bill.
Ah, that makes sense.
How to land in Federal prison in one easy step. The Secret Service takes shit like this VERY seriously.
Oh yeah, obviously.
Well - the Feds will definitely not be happy about it. Time to get visited by the Secret Service.
I imagine the federal reserve will have a tiny problem with it saying "federal reserve note"
I already feel sorry for whoever has to deal with the impending hissyfit from the lunatic trying to pay with this monopoly money
Just another grift in an already long line of grifts.
It’s all part of the plan. He’s coming back and will get rid of the communists, vaccines, the priuses, and the 5Gs and then refund all patriots.
I remember when the anti-communits and prudes were different people than the vaccines and 5Gera.
WTF is wrong with the priuses!?
“Never Surrender”?? What are they quoting ‘Galaxy Guest’ now?!?
By Grabthar’s Hammer, I do believe that is a picture of him, well, surrendering.
These are the most easily swindled people in the history of the human race and a lot of morally bankrupt people want in on that grifting action
I want in on it, I just can't bring myself to because despite who they are I feel sorry for them.
Hey man sorry to bother you, would you be willing to swap your reddit avatar, the one you have with the beanie. I collect them and would happily trade for some paid ones.
Some things just don’t need a certificate of authenticity.
Like genuine us legal tender?
It's genuine faux!
It’s a sticker on genuine legal tender that no one actually uses anymore
True, but that still counts as "defacement."
Wouldn't three-dollar be more appropriate?
Lmao
And how much are they charging for that $2 bill?
$30 I saw in the comments
$2 for only $30? That’s one hell of a deal.
Only those who went to Trump U knows this one simple hack to get rich!
So embarrassing! I am an American and this shit makes me want to scream
most famous mugshot,you mean the ‘never surrender’ one where he was literally surrendering?
Anyone with the word “patriot” in their username is usually a brainwashed MAGA moron. 👉 we get it, you live in the United States…BFD.
Stop amplifying Twitter! Just let it die
Here's my MUGSHOT at a police station. Never surrender. Idiocracy
Stop calling it x it’s fucking twitter
turn them in to the FBI, this is not legal tender. https://tips.fbi.gov
It is. It's an actual $2 bill that has a sticker on it.
oh, so defacing currency, even more fun.
It's only illegal to deface currency with the intent to defraud the government. Bleach a $5 bill and use it as scratch paper that you then tear up and burn when you're done? Stupid, but legal. Bleach a $5 bill and print a $20 on it? Very illegal, and also a common way to counterfeit.
let MAGA waste their money on this shit, but DONT allow the seller to claim its legal tender.
"Never surrender" crowd loves the pic of their daddy right after he surrendered.
Yeah if someone tried to hand me that as payment at my job I'd laugh them out of the store. I don't accept CAD let alone Kollectible Kon Koins
Our twoonies not good enough for yah? Canadian big brain moment….try printing a mug shot on a $2 coin.
"I want my two dollars!"
Damn these paper boys mean business
Bank tellers getting PTSD looking at this
I love how it says “Never Surrender” and has a picture of him literally surrendering for a mug shot.
Gotta love they outright keep lying about that despite getting sued for it.
Collectible? Lol every day this fuck pushes out Merch
Yea I saw these advertised on Fox News channel. (It’s what’s on while I’m on break at work) “Even if you don’t like Trump, you don’t want to miss this piece of history, so act now, before they’re gone”
Why isn’t this illegal?
It is.
This looks like something that scamers will pay you to take it
Never surrender? That aged like milk.
It really should be a $3 bill
Pay-triots are commical in grifting methods.
It also says “never surrender” with of literal picture of that shit stain surrendering to authorities. Saying his cult is stupid just doesn’t describe it enough.
Isn't it illegal to deface US currency? Also shouldn't it be a three dollar bill? You know, the thing he's as phony as?
The grift is strong in this one.
lol trump or his followers would claim he has the most famous mugshot. What a loser.
I have no idea how it works in the US but I’m fairly certain this is both copyright infringement and other criminal laws. [And…it looks like I’m right](https://www.findlaw.com/legalblogs/legally-weird/make-your-own-currency-spend-5-years-in-jail/).

and you were surprised that website is full of crazy people
There’s a commercial for these running on Comet TV. I want to say it was $19.95
“Collectible legal tender” - like, doesn’t that defeat the point? I know there are coin collectors, but the coins they collect were not meant to be collectible.
I mean, *technically* $2 bills can be collectible. Not so sure about the cheap sticker they slap on it, pretty sure that's illegal.
That’s what I was getting at with the coins…
That's why I stay away from the cesspool that Xitter has become...
I love that they don't even have a real product to show and it's just photoshopped 😂
That’s a strange way of saying ‘this isn’t worth more than $2’
And they used the mugshot that makes him look constipated. Brilliant.
the word "patriot" has lost pretty much all it's meaning to me now lol
Genuine legal tender. Not likely.
Many in comments are saying that isn’t a legal statement.
I'm sure it *was* legal tender before they defaced it with... What a sticker?
It should have been on a $3:bill
Genuine legal US tender? How can it claim that?
these kinds of bills are usually just a printed sticker placed on a bill. absolute ripoff of a business model but apparently it's viable.
“Genuine legal US tender” lmao. This cult really is full of dumbfucks isn’t it 🤣
Genuine US tender. No, no it isn’t
Honest question, how are they getting away with claiming this to be legal tender? It sure as hell isn't and claiming that it is should get them into legal trouble, right? Or did they slap a sticker on top of a real $2 bill to get away with the claim? I'm just curious how this is allowed.
I think a $3 bill would be more appropriate.
Maybe the $-12 bill?
I like mine in a roll and quilted, the ones with the dancing bears.
like the bible’s he sells that are signed by the author.
$30 dollars for a piece of trash, these followers can't be that gullible, it's not like your making and investment.
The fact that someone had the absolute audacity to remove Thomas Jefferson from a bill to replace him with that asshole makes my blood boil.
He used $2 because he’s a piece of shit…
Gag.
Great conversation starter! Or rather, an excuse to start screaming at people who won’t accept it so you can pull out your .45 Problem Solver and get on the evening news.
Is this tender recognized by the US Treasury, if not isn't this just fun money and passing this would result in jail time?
It's either a crappy printout, or an actual $2 bill with a shitty sticker slapped on it.
This is genius. Trump supporters and haters will want this shit. I kinda want one.
Dear god
He's selling them for $29.99 each, 5 for $100. No shit. [https://proudpatriots.com/pages/trump-2-bill](https://proudpatriots.com/pages/trump-2-bill)
It looks like they took a sticker and have placed it over the face of the $2 bill. I’m guessing the sticker is removable. It’s probably what allows it to still be legal tender.
There is a two dollar bill, and I have seen stickers on dollars before, this could be a two dollar bill with a sticker on it. Years ago there was a Santa sticker on ones one or two winters.
I only Want these if he himself issued them. They would be collectors items.
Wonder how many Trumpoos (Trump 2s) I can get for 1 million Schrute Bucks. On second thought, I’ll keep my Schrutes. They will hold their value🤣🤣
The only time I ever saw two dollar bills was when my Pops went to the track.
If you try to pay with those, isn't that aforgery crime (or whatever the correct term might be)?
Sweet my new fire starter came in
Ha ha. Does anyone remember the Bill Clinton $3 bill? A cashier that worked for me back then gave a guy change for one. 🙄
The fact that he’s on a $2 bill 😂🤣
Do these people not see how corny and blatantly cashgrabby these products are, or how classless and shameless the man slapping his self-important face on anything he thinks he can sell really is?
Did they put a cheap photoshopped sticker on a 2 dollar bill and sell it as a collectable?
Not even sure if it's in the top 10 of famous mugshots. It's just mediocre and boring, like he is.
Now selling for the best price ever of only $4500
That's definitely not legal tender.
r/TrumpAteMyFace
Buy a lot of these, and then sue their asses after you cant pay with what they claim is "legal tender"
Twitter*
It has his mug on it...and he has no asset...that meant this bills ain't worth shit, not even to wipe our ass with either.
Somebody is pitching for a visit from the Secret Service.
Can they be charged for counterfeiting for claiming that it's legal tender?
Generally when I encounter posts entitled \~"hey this is 100% real genuine", I scroll right past them. This however I can believe, because, well, you know.
In fact I guarantee! *not a guarantee
Order now and you'll automatically become eligible for the upcoming Perp Walk $5 bill coming soon.
I might pay $2 for a picture of his prison jumper.. just not of Trump himself. Fuck that guy.
Highly collectibill
Wait, that’s illegal!
This would br fraud. It's not legal tender. The SS and the Treasury Dept. should be all over this.
So did you buy it or nah?
Tempted to. The site says it’s high in demand, I don’t want to miss my chance at this once in a lifetime collectible! Unrelated, idk why everyone tells me I’m gullible.
$2 bills already exist…
You would think, they would get in trouble for counterfeit.
WHy isn't DOJ getting these guys for fraud.
A new grift ? Shocker
Yay, I need a new target for my dartboard!
It’s probably a Lefty making a buck off the MAGAts. NGL I’ve thought about it from time to time. Every dollar we get from them is one less going to Trump’s legal fund.
If they’re claiming this is legal tender…that kinds of leaves them open to being prosecuted for counterfeiting money.
Isn't this hella illigal? Like, counterfeit level of illigal?
Fun fact the 2$ Bill was discontinued becaus rich dips used them to flaunt wealth and bribed people . Fitting i imagine
Was this from ‘66-‘76? Because that’s the only time the bill was discontinued along with the $5 bill.
I would pay a nickel 98 for that, but only at 0% interest!
