Ultra high cost of living about to go through the roof higher. Hitler level loyalty oath required to not be harassed, and even campaigners have gotten face eaten by leopard deportation or fired. There are many cheaper places in world to live in, without having to pay as much for access.
Does this golden card cover immigrants of color or just Russians?
Why would an immigrant want to come here right now? Trump just sent a bunch of people to El Salvador to rot in prison with no due process. A fancy card wouldn’t save them any more than the court order saved Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia.
The fancy card is just his way of getting the “right types” of people to immigrate to the US.
Aka filthy rich.
It’s just another way to bribe him
He also said he will be the first to buy one… Like… what?..Did he forgot he already has us citizenship?
Putin does not…
This is probably why he wants it:
Unlike American citizens, gold card holders will not have to pay taxes to the U.S. government on their overseas income.
Not sure if that applies to us citizens with gold cards though.
There’s no way that doesn’t apply to him in his own mind. The US is one of only a few countries that double-tax foreign income and the super-wealthy with multinational holdings hate it. $5m to eliminate entire categories of tax? I could see him going through this whole thing just for that single rider.
Though there are also several foreign nationals in his orbit who would greatly benefit from such a program as well…
What the fuuuuuuuuck. That’s the real story here.
I’d be curious to know if that’s a law, or just another case of Trump Says.
this mf really wants to be the music man lmao this some used car salesman shit
lol, I played in the pit for my high school’s The Music Man show. Brought back some memories.
starts with p which rhymes with t and thats TROUBLE
Question: We have recently seen that the government can and will revoke green cards at will, why would anybody be interested in this knowing that it offers them at best ephemeral protections.
US law only applies to poor people.
It’s not about citizenship, it’s about access. They know that it doesn’t guarantee citizenship or protection, that’s what the rest of their money is for.
Money guarantees that. You know who doesn’t have 5 million bucks? A student studying in USA who might protest against genocide in Gaza. You know who has 5 millions? People like Venesuelan cartel members.
This is just asinine and reeks of similar level of greed as selling bath water to thirsty horny teenagers. It’s no fucking different. It’s just a gold card with ugly Trump’s face for a lot more money.
Belle Delphine is not greedy she’s amazing and if I keep giving her money she’ll notice me.
You just made me think of Trump bath water and now I hate you immensely.
Well I wasn’t think of that BEFORE you posted…but I am NOW!!!
UGH!!! Now I’m wondering if the bath water washes off his suntan and turns the water orange. YOU DID THIS!!! YOU PUT THAT IMAGE IN MY HEAD!!!
burns your house down
No jury would convict me.
And in 1 week time you’ll see news with Trump selling his bath water in front of White House lmao

There is substantial resentment on my side against rich oligarchs buying up German real estate and causing the COL crisis we are currently in.
Is this the one that includes acces to Trump Gaza?
Of course not, the Fast Ride card is sold separately and it’s another couple million.
These are the same cards that used to require 1 million in cash and 4 million in small business investment with proven local employees right?
You’re thinking the EB-5 visa program, I think. That was the fifth “employment based” visa.
You’re sort of right, but your numbers are off. It’s $1.8 million in cash, but the real kicker is that you need to sustain those 10+ permanent US employees through your investments. Been a popular program since 1990, about 12,000 folks use it a year lately. It’s still a thing, you can apply for one today.
A much better deal than handing $5M to US Government. Just buy or start a restaurant, theoretically returning a fair ROI. But losing less than $5M should be easy.
Having watched kitchen nightmares, it’s pretty easy to lose that kinda money on a restaurant too
Officer: Sir, do you have a green card?
Rich brown guy: No, but I have a gold–
Officer: proceeds to beat Rich Brown Guy.
Remember when he delayed the COVID stimulus checks because he wanted his name on them? He has zero shame.
@Quetzalcutlass @umbrella and it was a stupid but effective tactic that let the republics know he was their guy. would that the dems would be so forward.
As much as I’d hate for Democrats to start using the same tactics that tore national unity apart, taking the high road hasn’t really worked thus far. Democrats are terrible at messaging, while Republicans excel at it despite having terrible messages.
If I ever became insanely wealthy (with the associated lapse in ethics), I’d fund a social media blitz that uses all the same underhanded tactics Republicans do to reach their voters, but that would contain the objective truth in convenient, bite-sized quotables since that’s what seems to work, with citations so any actually literate viewers can verify the information.
If democracy is failing due to a glut of bad information, we should put out good information faster and better and in a way that works. Speeches and policy pages don’t work in the modern era, pithy one-liners do.
So you’re telling me that millionaires can now literally buy a trump card? Awesome…
He did the same thing with the pardons. All parts of America are for sale!!!
This man is just the manifestation of Cringe
Is that his fucking mugshot?
