Activism comes in all shapes and sizes—protests, petitions, even hashtags. But who could have predicted that Trump supporters would take their loyalty to a whole new level?

Enter the latest trend: stamping $5 bills with the phrase “Trump Lives Here.” Yes, you read that right. Someone out there thought this was a brilliant idea, and the internet is here to roast it.

 

The saga began when an X user (formerly Twitter) shared a photo of a peculiar $5 bill they received at work. The bill, stamped with thebold declaration, 'Trump Lives Here,' immediately raised eyebrows.

Aside from the obvious questions of legality, (hello, defacing currency?) there's this hilarious assumption behind the stamp. Whoever did this seems to think the White House is printed on the $5 bill.

Spoiler alert: it’s not.

The building featured on the bill is actually the Lincoln Memorial.

You know, the iconic monument dedicated to Abraham Lincoln—not a residence, and definitely not Trump’s current or future address.

No one lives there. Not a single soul. Not even a ghost.

The sheer absurdity of it all has left the internet in stitches.

X users, as expected, had a field day. One user quipped, “Trump lives here? In the Lincoln Memorial? Does he pay rent?” Another added, “This is what happens when you skip civics class.” The jokes practically wrote themselves, and the post quickly went viral, with people sharing their own takes on the bizarre act of “dollar bill activism.”

While it’s unclear whether this was a serious attempt at political expression or just a prank, one thing’s for sure: it’s given the internet a much-needed laugh. And let’s be honest, in today’s world, we’ll take humor wherever we can find it—even if it’s stamped on a $5 bill.

So, the next time you get cash back, take a closer look. Who knows? You might just find a little piece of political comedy in your wallet.
