LIBERATION DAY: TARIFS, TANKS, AND OFFICIAL DONALD TRUMP MEME COIN
In a bizarre move, former President Donald Trump has announced the launch of an official meme coin, dubbed "TRUMP Coin," to commemorate the 78th anniversary of Japan's surrender in World War II, also known as "Liberation Day."
The coin, which features Trump's face and the phrase "FREEDOM!" emblazoned on it, is set to be released on September 2, with a portion of the proceeds going to support Trump's Save America PAC.
But that's not all - Trump has also announced a surprise tariff cut on Japanese goods, effective immediately. The move is seen as a nod to Japan's historical surrender, with Trump claiming it will "bring about a new era of peace and prosperity" between the two nations.
To celebrate the occasion, Trump has also ordered the deployment of an M1 Abrams tank to the White House lawn, where it will remain on display for the duration of the celebrations.
The move has left many scratching their heads, with critics labeling it a "distraction" from the country's more pressing issues. "It's just another example of Trump's ego and lack of focus on the real problems facing this country," said one analyst.
Despite the controversy, Trump remains undeterred, tweeting "Liberation Day is a big deal, folks. Believe me, nobody knows more about big deals than I do."
The TRUMP Coin is set to go on sale later this week, with prices starting at $50 per coin. A portion of the proceeds will go to support Trump's Save America PAC, which has been criticized for its lack of transparency and accountability.
