Harriett Tubman will replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill

That Jackson is dead.
That the guy responsible for the most infamous incident of ethnic cleansing in american history was a democrat.  
That trump was a democrat.
That party labels mean nothing.
That Tubman was a deeply religious, gun toting republican.
That Jackson has been on the bill for 90 years.
That some things are emotional codswallop, and some things are reason.
That other than congratulatory shit-snivel, we see no reason why this change is being made now.
That only founding fathers and dead presidents are on our currency, aside from Sacagawea, which didn't go well.
That Stanislov Petrov may be more deserving of being on our currency than Harriet Tubman.
That William Lloyd Garrison had more to lose, little to gain, and put himself at great risk, which could be taken to mean that his contribution was greater.
That for some odd reason, no one thinks William Lloyd Garrison, is worthy.
That Tubman gets a pass.
That he does not believe that Tubmans contribution was greater than Garrisons.
That others stubbornly insist Tubman is worthy.
That everyone else is being dishonest, he never opposed tubman, and that he's not holding his breath for a straight answer.
That he is being falsely accused of racism and sexism by people who factor race and sex into their choices.
That racism is making choices or judgements based on race
That putting Tubman on the bill will help counterfeiters.
That, again, everyone else is being dishonest and he never expects straight answers because no one will admit the "why".
That "The People" were not consulted.
I'm not sure this  rehabilitates his reputation
