Nox
a genocidal, racist, bordering on tyrannical ass
Nox
hell he's the one President who went down in history responding to the Supreme Court ruling that his plan to relocate the Native Americans was Unconstitutional with

"They've made their decision, now let them enforce it"

Personally I'm a fan of putting him on another bill. Like, make a new denomination for some absurd amount no one will use, and put him on it. If only for one reason:

Nox
Since then he would literally be the face of the thing he hated most
