The US Treasury Department's decision to include Donald Trump's signature on all US currency has drawn criticism from various quarters, including musician Jack White.

White, known for his outspoken views, has labeled Trump an 'egomanical conman,' raising questions about the potential impact on public trust in the currency system.

This move may have broader implications for the perception of US currency, as the signature of a political figure could alter the traditional, neutral nature of currency design.
