Which of the four faces would you erase from Mount Rushmore?

Is George Washington still worthy? Do we still like Lincoln enough? Would we take down Thomas Jefferson, or would we remove Teddy Roosevelt?

Because it’s only a matter of time before our egomaniac president sends federal workers to South Dakota to sandblast the national monument to make room for his carved portrait.

In the meantime, President Donald Trump will settle for having his signature on every piece of cash you can fold.

As if hijacking the iconic Kennedy Center wasn’t enough, the Commandeerer-in-chief wants to put his name on something else — the U.S. dollar.

Under a plan promoted by the nation’s Treasury Department, Trump’s signature would appear on all new U.S. paper currency, a first for a sitting president.

While many clear-thinking people oppose the proposal, at least one elected official was able to put the idea in perspective.

“At least it will remind us who to thank when we pay more for gas, goods and groceries,” Rep. Shontel Brown, D-Ohio, said in a tweet on X.

In Clod We Trust.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he wants to roll out the new greenback as part of the nation’s “Semiquincentennial,” the country’s 250th anniversary being celebrated later this year.

“There is no more powerful way to recognize the historic achievements of our great country and President Donald J. Trump than U.S dollar bills bearing his name,” Bessent said.

Bessent’s name, as Treasury secretary, already appears on the currency. Under the new directive, he would share dollar bill space with Trump.

In December, the U.S. Mint published draft designs of a Semiquincentennial $1 coin to honor Trump, whose popularity has been plummeting

Unless government money minds are trying to hurt the value of the U.S. dollar even more, putting Trump’s name or face on any U.S. currency makes absolutely no cents.

Ironically, the last proposed currency change was basically blocked by the Trump administration.

That was when a proposal was made to put the face of abolitionist Harriet Tubman, the freedom-fighting Underground Railroad conductor, on the $20 bill. That effort stalled during Trump’s first term.

U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), who wrote the Tubman $20 bill legislation, said adding the president’s signature is another in a long line of bad Trump ideas.

“The President’s insistence on plastering his name on bills, coins and national monuments while in office flies in the face of our country’s ideals,” Shaheen said.

“We should celebrate our 250th anniversary by uplifting the heroic figures who have made our nation what it is today — not fueling yet another vanity project for the sitting president.”

Since Trump has been in office — both times — he has put his brand on every relic and corner of government, from federal buildings to military warships.

A government website designed to help people buy prescription drugs at discounted prices was branded TrumpRx.

And months before joining Israel in the war against Iran, Trump added his name to a nonprofit think tank, the United States Institute of Peace.

But his biggest hijacking display came when he took top billing on the renowned Kennedy Center, a move that forced several outraged performers to cancel their appearances.

Now he wants his signature on our currency. Trump shouldn’t even have his name on Monopoly money. Wait. Too late for that.

Before he became president, the game maker featured Trump’s name and likeness in a limited collector’s edition.

That version needs an upgrade, with a card that reads: GO TO JAIL. GO DIRECTLY TO JAIL. DO NOT PASS MAR-A-LAGO. DO NOT COLLECT ANY MORE MONEY FOR ICE.
