He argued that the current economic situation has forced American families to carry more cash, making the introduction of a higher denomination bill necessary.
"Bidenflation has destroyed the economy, forcing American families to carry more cash," Wilson wrote on X. "Most valuable bill for most valuable President!"
Public reaction and legal challenges
The proposal has sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some users praising the idea and others questioning its practicality.
Critics have pointed out that current laws prevent a living person from appearing on U.S. currency. Despite this, Wilson's proposal aims to honour Trump for his financial policies and draw a contrast to the previous administration.
If approved, Trump would become the first living former or sitting president to be featured on American currency.
