There was zero chance that Trump was ever going to allow this ceremony to take place. Plus, Obama wanted no part of this either. He’ll wait until Trump is out of office, if that ever happens. Remember, Trump was the one that delayed the release of the new Harriet Tubman $20 bill. He called the decision to put Tubman on the currency “pure political correctness” and proposed putting her portrait on the $2 bill. Flunky Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin did his boss a solid and has delayed the release until 2028 for “redesign Issues”. The design has been in the works since 2016. Mnuchin knew Trump would fire him on the spot if it had come out as scheduled in 2020.
