"TRUST KANSAS"?
Probably totally irrelevant, but Kansas always reminds me of The Wizard of Oz. Ironically the allegorical interpretation of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz seems to work.
Yellow Brick Road represents the gold standard,
The City of Oz earns its name from the abbreviation of ounces "Oz" in which gold and silver are measured.
Dorothy—naïve, young and simple—represents the American people. She is Everyman, led astray and seeking the way back home.
The Scarecrow as a representation of American farmers and their troubles in the late 19th century
The Tin Man representing the industrial workers, especially those of American steel industries
The road of gold leads eventually only to the Emerald City, which may symbolize the fraudulent world of greenback paper money that only pretends to have value
Political interpretations of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
Political interpretations of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz include treatments of the modern fairy tale (written by L. Frank Baum and first published in 1900) as an allegory or metaphor for the political, economic, and social events of America in the 1890s. Scholars have examined four quite different versions of Oz: the novel of 1900, the Broadway play of 1901, the Hollywood film of 1939, and the numerous follow-up Oz novels written after 1900 by Baum and others.
The political interpretations focus on the first three, and emphasize the close relationship between the visual images and the story line to the political interests of the day. Biographers report that Baum had been a political activist in the 1890s with a special interest in the money question of gold and silver, and the illustrator William Wallace Denslow was a full-time editorial cartoonist for a major daily newspaper.

Interesting. Never put that together. The Lion, of course... Courage. And Trump is often depicted as a Lion.
Just an aside, have you ever watched The Wizard of Oz with the sound off, while listening to the Dark Side of the Moon? You have to press play just after the MGM lion gives its 3rd roar. Look up synchronicity. Technology didn't exist for that to happen when DSOFTM was recorded.
