As anyone who has ever seen his buildings knows, Donald Trump has always liked to see his name displayed prominently. It\u2019s become a hallmark of his presidency<\/a>, to the point that the Treasury Department announced on Thursday that President Trump\u2019s signature will appear on U.S. dollars later this year<\/a>, a first for a sitting U.S. president.<\/p>\n

The move is the latest reflecting a push to imprint his personal brand on Washington and the nation in ways that could outlast his presidency.<\/p>\n

In total, since the start of Mr. Trump\u2019s second term, there have been more than a dozen instances of his name, image or signature emblazoned on a variety of American initiatives and institutions. Some changes seem as if they could be lasting, some are caught up in the courts, and others may never get off the ground.<\/p>\n

Here is a look at that ever-growing list.<\/p>\n

The administration is planning to feature Mr. Trump\u2019s face on multiple coins to celebrate the nation\u2019s 250th anniversary. The move is legally dubious<\/a>. It\u2019s also rare. Few people have made it onto U.S. currency while still alive. \"Trump-Kennedy <\/p>\n

In that same pressure campaign, the Trump administration pushed Mr. Schumer to rename Dulles Airport<\/a>. That wasn\u2019t successful either but still seems to be of interest to the president. \"NFL <\/p>\n

Administration officials have discussed Mr. Trump\u2019s desire for the new stadium to be named after him<\/a>. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said it would be a \u201cbeautiful name,\u201d as he enabled the stadium\u2019s construction. But the legislation that kicked off the redevelopment process was signed before he took office. \"\u201cTrump\u201d <\/p>\n

Early in Mr. Trump\u2019s second term, House Republicans introduced several bills that sought to expand his likeness on a number of things, such as a $100 bill<\/a> and a new $250 bill<\/a>. Those proposals haven\u2019t gained traction. \"\u201cTrump <\/p>\n

In an effort to copy the deep-cutting tactics of Elon Musk\u2019s Department of Government Efficiency, this bill sought to pare $150 million in annual funding from the Washington, D.C. Metro system unless it renamed itself to honor Mr. Trump<\/a>. Like the other House bills on this list it has gone nowhere. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As anyone who has ever seen his buildings knows, Donald Trump has always liked to see his name…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":178716,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[1452,9,11,10,1069,1876],"class_list":["post-178715","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-donald-j","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news","tag-trump","tag-united-states-politics-and-government"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178715","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=178715"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178715\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/178716"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=178715"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=178715"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=178715"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
