[On Mr. Trump's new challenge coin...]

"Overall, the coin looks like the type of flashy souvenir that Trump would've sold in his casinos' gift shops -- assuming those casinos were still open.

"Moammar Gadhafi may have had his gold gun and Saddam Hussein boasted a gold toilet-paper dispenser, but Trump's flashy gold coin would make them and other dictators green with envy. Apparently, MAGA stands for 'Make America Gaudy Again.'

[...]

"No doubt Trump supporters will love this new Trumpian coin. But to me this coin is like Trump: a bad penny that's an unwelcome, worthless knockoff of the original -- that we can't seem to avoid."

-- Dean Obeidallah, "Trump's new coin remakes US in his own gaudy image", 2017-12-27
