Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and his wife, Louise Linton, celebrated the first batch of bucks to bear his signature with a photoshoot at the U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing on Wednesday.
And the reaction on social media was absolutely priceless:

Why do Treasury Sec Mnuchin and his wife insist on posing for photos that make them look like Bond villains? pic.twitter.com/2auZr3LGoP

Maybe not the best photo on the eve of vote on a tax bill that's being attacked for favoring the wealthy? If the Democrats were a competent political party, this photo would be in ads in every GOP swing district tomorrow, with a competition for best caption to get voters engaged. pic.twitter.com/reTgsfY2Zo

The gloves, the Blue Steel gaze! Only way this could be worse would be if Linton and Mnuchin were lighting cigars with flaming dollar bills. pic.twitter.com/72KVMUT1fh
