‘He is not a monarch’: Donald Trump gets advice from Barbra Streisand — and suddenly, the stakes feel impossibly high

Barbra Streisand recently took to Blue Sky social to voice her concerns, remarking that President Trump “continues to try to slap his name on everything,” from the Kennedy Center to a dollar bill, adding that “No living President has ever done this. He is not a monarch.” Her comment was made in support of the recent “No Kings” protest, which she wasn’t able to attend because of an injury.

Streisand’s comment is also poignant because the Treasury Department recently announced a significant change to U.S. currency, confirming that Trump’s signature will appear on future $100 bills, in celebration of the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence. Per Time Magazine, it is the first time in American history that a sitting president’s signature will be featured on paper currency.
