PwnallthethingsDebating with myself whether to actually write up the billion and twelve reasons why if the President wants to ignore the debt ceiling he needs to mint the coin, rather than use the 14th amendment, but also ... kinda feel like it will have an interested readership of somewhere between -4 and 0.
Might do it anyway, because, y'know, trillion dollar coin.
John Breen@Pwnallthethings So "TBCoin", Terra-bit-coin ?
@CharleneTeglia@Pwnallthethings I kind of don't care how they end this but it has to end; they can't be allowed to battle over paying bills they already agreed to pay in previous budgets. End the debt ceiling hostage threat forever.
mdunc11@Pwnallthethings yeah but the coin sounds sillier to the vsp so... Looks like barreling towards the end 14th we go. 🫤
PL Arango@Pwnallthethings I want Beau on one side of the trillion dollar coin, with Hunter on the other. Biden carries it with him at all times and lets the coin determine if we get his good or evil personality, like Two-Face
Óscar Morales Vivó@Pwnallthethings the best part of the trillion dollar coin is that the incredibly dumb Hollywood blockbuster that brings Nicholas Cage’s career back kinda writes itself.
Flaming Cheeto@Pwnallthethings then segway right into your movie treatment for "The trillion dollar heist"
William Johnston@Pwnallthethings The most frustrating parts of the trillion dollar coin idea are that it probably won't have a very interesting design on it, I probably won't be able to collect it, and I probably won't even be able to see it on display in the Smithsonian. It's a numismatic nightmare!
