Obviously not. So how’s it help us when he does it but not when we do it? (It doesn’t?)
This whole, “Trump supporting the vaxx helps us” push reminds me of the “they’re pulling kids from the tunnels” and other such nonsense.

“A republic, if you can keep it”
The founding fathers knew full well that currency was one means of breaking a classical republic and should have included this in the constitution, properly. Nothing is money but gold and silver, and especially not paper promises to pay.
"Nothing is money but gold and silver"...I see them as valuables instead...like collectibles that always have value. In general, the value of collectibles rises and falls; people are more interested in collecting it or not. I see paper money as less valuable as gold and silver but it still has some value. Why? Well, one can't just recreate an authentic bill and the bills that have more anti-counterfeit measures in them are harder to produce, thus more valuable. Also each bill has a serial number; wouldn't it be like collecting baseball cards?
Also perhaps we should limit the amount of paper money produced according to the population, as to hinder the Reserve from printing whenever they feel like or when they use that to bail the government out. It would have to be a strict limit with hefty penalities or imprisonment if broken.
We should never permit the use of paper money ever again. Metallic coinage only.
Here's what I (a layman) see about metal coins and paper money:
•Coins Good - Backed by precious metal(s). Physical asset.
•Coins Bad - Can be counterfeited. No serial number per coin.
•Paper Good - Harder to counterfeit (especially higher bills). Accountability with a serial number. Physical asset.
•Paper Bad - The control that the Fed has over it where they can print more out of thin air, causing inflation.
Perhaps we the people should be able to elect six of the seven governors of the Federal Reserve instead of them being appointed by the President (although he would appoint the seventh governor), so we can have more control ourselves over the system.
Counterfeit coins less of a concern these days. The PMV pro could easily be made cheaper, and verifies the metal with electric currents and weight.
The Fed must be gassed, figuratively speaking.
