"What's the argument for Donald Trump getting a $250 bill?" asked Democratic strategist Mike Nellis.

Nellis further emphasized that Tubman represents qualities distinct from Donald Trump by risking her life as a regular citizen.

"Harriet Tubman represents everything that Donald Trump is not, right?" said Nellis.

"There's somebody who put her body on the line, who was a regular person."

Lyman countered by pointing out the assassination attempt against the former president, which drew an exasperated reply from Nellis.

"Donald Trump was shot and nearly killed for trying to be president," said Lyman.

Nellis immediately rejected the comparison during the broadcast.

"Oh, stop, my god," said Nellis.

As the debate concluded, conservative radio host Jason Rantz offered an alternative compromise regarding the abolitionist's placement on U.

S. money.

"Put her on another bill," suggested conservative radio host Jason Rantz.

The program host concluded the segment with a final remark regarding the higher denomination mentioned earlier in the debate.

"Put her on the $250!" responded Phillip.
