MONTPELIER — Invisible Hardwick has been selected to provide the keynote speech on the Vermont Statehouse lawn for the uncloaking of the first of 50 Donald Trump statues to be erected in state capitals throughout the U.S. The event is scheduled Wednesday, April 1, half past 1 to forevermore.

The events are planned in conjunction with the release of a commemorative Presidential gold coin and the President’s signature on all paper money beginning this year; the 250th anniversary of the country’s birth.

The U.S. Treasury Department announced this month that President Donald Trump’s signature will appear on all new U.S. paper currency, marking the first time a sitting president’s signature is featured, noted CNN. The move breaks a 165-year tradition of only featuring the Treasury Secretary and Treasurer signatures. 

Invisible’s local coordinators Wholelotta Crazed and Satchel Troll would not comment on the draft of their speech, assuring the Governor that Vermont residents would not be disappointed. “We promise your attention will not sag,” they said. “We can’t promise as much for our plans to decorate the statue.
