        There should be fair competition in the market the government should not be the only one that can sell citizenships. Or at least we should be allowed to sell it back to the government for $5 million who can then sell to someone else.

      You’re just mad trump discovered an infinite money glitch for government revenues. Sell someone a visa for $5 mil, kick them out for no reason because you can, make them pay another $5 mil to come back, rinse and repeat.

        Sure you can. When Trump breaks them and makes them poor, they’ll have to stop trolling and get serious. A ton of them are starting to wise up and pressure their congressional representatives to do something.

          When they’re broken, he’ll let them loose on the browns who get all the blame.

    “Who is the first buyer?” one of the reporters asked.

    “Me,” Trump quipped.

    “The second?” the reporter pushed on.

    “I don’t know, but I’m the first buyer. It’ll be out in … less than two weeks. Pretty exciting, right?” the president asked.

    First of all, why would he be the first buyer of an express residency card when he’s already a citizen? Fucking moron.

    Second, “it’s happening in two weeks” is Trumpspeak for “it’s literally never going to happen.”

        There have been similar (non-literal) golden visas offered all over the world, mainly by poorer EU countries or the various third-tier states that make most of their foreign exchange through money-laundering.

      Residual salesman brain.

      Trump: I am awesome, I bought this thing, it is awesome, you will be awesome if you buy it too.

      It bears no relationship to … making any kind of sense, because it is literally a hustle, a psychological manipulation tactic.

      He is just saying salesman words, meant to encourage buy in.

      Has no relation to reality, the truth, making sense, etc.

      … But, it works on rubes, dullard marks, cult members, weak willed / low self esteem people with decent reliability.

      These are just more Trump University or Trump Steaks to him.

          Yep. There’s this strategy called “pump and dump.” It’s often used by the wealthy to inflate stock prices before cratering them to buy at discount.

          Idiots like you see line go up for a while, and think:

          • I’ll buy at a discount as it falls

          Instead of noticing the “pump” part of the scheme, also visible in your image.

          Unless you want to point to some economic windfall happening between 2022 and 24 that explains all that growth, it is very likely from downsizing, buybacks, and off market darkpool price manipulation. (Which now happens regularly these days with every blue chip stock around 5pm).

          Historically, Tariffs lead to a recession in 1830 (15% Tariffs), a Depression in 1930 (20% Tariffs), and now with a 40% plus Tariffs on basically everything, we are likely to see the complete disembowlment of the US Dollar and all the market dominance we built with it.

          You better get your completely misplaced premature celebration out now, because you are going to be eating crow the rest of this year, and far into the future. There’s no amount of bullshit Trump spin that will bring our markets back. We are unquestionably fucked.

          I will gladly check back here in 8 months to provide an updated chart, seeing as you will certainly be too embarrassed to do so.

                Maybe not. But it’s a literal picture of the stock market melting down.

                Either way, if it’s not clear, maybe people should err on the side of not being a dick to a stranger on the internet.

                  It’s a picture of the stock market melting down…

                  …from a time frame of 2021 and on.

                  Which implies the growth from that time until now is somewhat meaningful in comparison to the dip that specific time frame does its best to minimize.

                  Which to me, seems intentional. Kinda like you’re being a dick. Which is why I responded like one in turn.

                  If that was all an accident:

                  Then apologies for calling you an idiot and listing in detail all the ways I agree with you about the market melting.

          That would also mean that he had planned everything in detail to fit together. That’s beyond his capacities. The recession was obviously unplanned; he’s already struggling to keep the whole thing under control. The complexity of human society is overwhelming him.

    I really want to setup a museum of all the crazy crap Trump has sold, or put his name on. Steaks, sneakers, diplomas, deeds to apartments in his buildings, those stimulus checks with his fake signature on them, everything.

    It would be crazy to see it all next to each other. Along with how much he made or lost. It’ll be the most perfect museum in the country. Some say even the world maybe.

      I am looking forward to the “Trump Firing Range” activity center at the Nuremburg Museum. With an airsoft gun, you get to shoot wax dummies of Trump, Vance, Thiel, Musk, and other conservative critters. If you are a good marksman, you win prizes, such as a Golden Visa that is worth $10 bucks as a curio of a fallen nation.
